The Manchester United youth academy continues to make bold strides this summer, with several of the club’s youngest talents heading to Germany for a prestigious training camp.
United’s Under-18 and Under-21 squads have flown out to Adidas HQ for a developmental camp, offering a rare chance to test themselves on the continent.
Highly-rated names like Elyh Harrison, Jaydan Kamason, Sekou Kone, Tyler Fitzgerald and James Scanlon are among the older prospects representing the Reds at the camp.

But it’s not just the senior academy stars taking part.
A number of United’s younger age group standouts are also involved.
Including Godwill Kukonki, James Overy, Bendito Mantato, and Samuel Lusale, who are all making steady strides toward the Under-18s.
Now, RedYouthUnited on X has confirmed that Jacey Carrick, one of the most talked-about names in United’s youth ranks, is also part of the group.
The young midfielder is among a handful of teenage talents called up to join the trip.
A group that includes fellow 14-year-old standout Douka Nkoto Abdoulaye.
JJ Gabriel, the exciting 14-year-old, is also on his way to Germany.

Now the focus will be on continuing to grow and learn, with the long-term goal of pushing into regular Under-18 action.
And for Jacey Carrick, the pathway is more than just symbolic.
The youngster is the son of former United captain Michael Carrick.
A club legend who won five Premier League titles, the Champions League, the FA Cup, and the League Cup during his time at Old Trafford.
Like his father, Jacey plays in central midfield and carries a similar calm presence in possession.
Attributes that once made Michael Carrick such a vital cog in Sir Alex Ferguson’s last great United sides.

The Germany trip will allow Carrick to gain valuable experience training and competing alongside older age groups.
A vital step in his early development.
While still only 14, his invitation to the Adidas HQ speaks volumes about the club’s belief in his potential.
With the right guidance and continued development, Carrick could well be on the path to following in his father’s footsteps – and making his own mark in the red of Manchester United.
Other younger players to make the trip included Douka Nkoto & Jacey Carrick who made up a group of almost 40 players #MUFC #MUAcademy https://t.co/hFHlVi6ZE0
