Northern Ireland youngster Ethan Galbraith is ready to join Manchester United this weekend.
The defensive midfielder from County Antrim, Northern Ireland, flew to Manchester in January to sign a pre-contract and is due to officially complete his transfer this weekend.
Galbraith, of Linfield, told the Irish Mirror: "I went on a couple of trials last year after I was spotted playing for Linfield U16s. I must have done okay because United then offered me a contract in January.
"The trials were good, and I was playing with top players as well. Players like Angel Gomes who is moving onto the first team now.
"I played in a couple of friendly games and also some training sessions and it was a great experience.
"I signed the pre-contract in January and I will finally travel over to Manchester this weekend to live there and sign my full deal.
"It is one-year scholarship and then two-year pro deal. I will be playing with the Under 18s next season, but the big aim is to progress to the first team."
