Youngster Habeeb Ogunneye Included In Manchester United's Fa Cup Squad Against Nottingham Forest

Manchester United‘s up-and-coming talent, Habeeb Ogunneye, has received a call-up to the senior squad for their upcoming FA Cup clash against Nottingham Forest.

Battling injuries to key players like Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Erik ten Hag has turned to Ogunneye to provide depth in the full-back position alongside Diogo Dalot.

Habeeb Ogunneye, born on November 12, 2005, has been honing his skills as a right-back within the Manchester United academy, progressing from the Under-18s to the Under-21 team.

With a knack for joining in attacks and assisting his team in offensive play, Ogunneye’s versatility also allows him to adapt to a wing-back role when needed.

His impressive performances have caught the attention of England‘s youth setup, with Ogunneye making appearances for the nation’s U-17 squad and showcasing his potential on the international stage.

Having featured in the UEFA Youth League and the EFL Trophy for Manchester United, Ogunneye brings a blend of youth and experience to the table for the Red Devils.

Despite his young age, Ogunneye’s inclusion in the senior squad marks a significant milestone in his development, offering him a chance to make his debut on a larger stage.

Manchester United fans eagerly await the possibility of witnessing the next rising star in action, as Ogunneye prepares to showcase his talents against Nottingham Forest.
