and live on Freeview channel 276
Manchester City have reportedly agreed a seven-figure fee with Leeds United to sign youngster Finley Gorman. The fee for Gorman, which hasn’t been disclosed, is expected to be a British record fee paid for a 15-year-old and will see Gorman join Manchester City’s academy - one that has been famed for producing very talented players in recent times.
Before an agreement was reached with City, Gorman had been linked with a move to Newcastle United as they look to strengthen their academy setup. The young winger, who has represented England Under-16’s, may also be followed across the pennines by fellow academy star Archie Gray.
