Man City management excited over potential of Thierry Ambrose

Manchester City management are excited about young French striker Thierry Ambrose.

Ambrose has signed pro terms with City after scoring 21 goals in 27 starts for the under-18s last season.

City academy chief Mark Allen said: "His heart and soul goes into every game, he is settled in Manchester and is very much part of the family. He is already very popular, with his teammates and off the park.

"I don't want to put too much pressure on him, as I never like to at such a young age but he is a real prospect.

"He is showing characteristics that as he grows and gets physically stronger, he will have all the attributes."
