Colin Little Shares Obi’s Rapid Rise to Fame…
Manchester United’s Under-18s assistant coach, Colin Little, spilled the beans on how Chido Obi, the sprightly striker, is zooming into the first-team squad faster than you can say “hat-trick”! Obi, who only recently traded his Arsenal shirt for a Man United one, made quite the entrance with a raucous debut as a sub in the nail-biting 1-0 loss to Tottenham Hotspur last month.
Since then, he’s popped up on the bench twice more, itching to make his on-field presence felt. The lad scored a whopping 14-minute hat-trick in his first Under-18s start, making a spectacle of poor Nottingham Forest in a 6-0 victory. Obi’s turbo-boosted journey has left United players and fans eagerly anticipating his senior team debut.
Colin Little revealed the secret tea he shared with Obi and his parents – the one about the lightning-speed journey from youth ranks to first team. He claims moments like these are what the club’s all about, boosting morale for staff and players alike. Little hinted: “It’s raining goals, and Chido’s ready to make it pour.” With eyes on the weekend, everyone at United is hoping Obi delivers a special gift – a goal to savor!
