Manchester United recently unveiled some coaching changes that will have an impact on three players of Nigerian descent, specifically Habeeb Ogunneye, Victor Musa, and Maxi Oyedele.
According to the club's official website, the U18s team will now be under the guidance of Adam Lawrence for the upcoming 2023-2024 season.

Habeeb Ogunneye, a promising right-back, had an impressive run last season with 9 appearances in the U18 Premier League, during which he showcased his skills with three assists.
Victor Musa, another talented player, made his mark in the division with 19 appearances for the young Red Devils, bagging an impressive 6 goals.
He also had the opportunity to participate in 2 matches in the FA Youth Cup.
As for Maxi Oyedele, Travis Binnion has been appointed as the new coach for the development side, meaning Oyedele will be under his tutelage.
Moreover, Oyedele is being promoted to the U21s team for the upcoming season, a testament to his potential and abilities. So far, the 18-year-old has accumulated six appearances for the age group.
In addition, Oyedele spent some time on loan at Altrincham FC, competing in the English National League during the second half of the previous season.
During his loan spell, he showcased his goal-scoring prowess by netting 4 goals in twelve games.
The coaching changes at Manchester United signal a new chapter for these three Nigerian prospects, and fans are eagerly anticipating the progress they will make under the guidance of their new coaches in the forthcoming season.
