Man Utd hand trials to Chelsea attacker Princewill Ehibhatiomhan

Manchester United have handed trials to Chelsea striker Princewill Ehibhatiomhan.

The 17-year-old is currently a free agent after turning down a new contract with his former club Reading and is actively seeking a new club.

Ehibhatiomhan featured for United's U17 side in a 2-1 win against Blackburn Rovers in the Premier Cup earlier this week. Ethan Williams and Manni Norkett grabbed the goals to give their side a win.

United will continue to keep an eye on the teenage forward in the weeks ahead, but it remains to be seen if the trial period will result in a a contract offer being made, says the Manchester Evening News.

Ehibhatiomhan has already trained with three different clubs since his Reading contract expired at the end of last season. The forward trained with Chelsea over the summer and scored in pre-season friendlies against Leeds United and Coventry City.
