Manchester United Defender Of Nigerian Descent Keen To Continue His Career In Europe

Published: May 28, 2019

One-cap United States international of Nigerian descent, Matthew Olosunde has started his search for a new club ahead of the 2019-2020 season.

ESPN FC has confirmed that the right back will be leaving Manchester United upon the expiration of his contract on June 30 and is keen to continue his career in Europe -- preferably in England -- rather than return to the United States.

Olosunde was linked with a move to New York Red Bulls last summer but remained a player of Manchester United when the transfer window closed for business.

The 21-year-old is ending his association with Manchester United after three and a half years wearing their colours following his move from New York Red Bulls Academy.

Since his arrival in England, he played a total of 33 matches for the Red Devils in the Premier League 2 and provided three assists.

Olosunde played against the Golden Eaglets at the 2015 FIFA U17 World Cup.
