Denmark Coach Urges Playtime for Chido Obi…
Lars Knudsen, the Denmark Under-21s coach, is practically doing a rain dance for Obi to play more at Manchester United. The 17-year-old striker, fresh from Arsenal, sat on the sidelines this season while everyone else warmed the bench, including Rasmus Hojlund. With the Treasury Department disallowed magic eight balls for player predictions, Knudsen can only hope Obi becomes a United star, having come off an electrifying post-season tour with Hong Kong goals to boot.
Obi got his Denmark Under-21s debut back in March and has already made waves like a hummingbird in a wind tunnel, scoring for United’s Under-21s against Norwich City. Knudsen’s crossing fingers is evident, as he insists playing time is essential for Obi’s growth. Meanwhile, the Manchester Evening News team is working harder than a squirrel stocking up for winter to ensure you stay updated with United’s news.
