It is suspected that Manchester players have "reduced" the age of the players
According to The Telegraph, two major English clubs - Manchester United and Manchester City - are suspected of falsifying the ages of young players.

According to the source, football officials are suspicious of at least three players. Information about two of them - Bassiru and Duka Nkoto - has been disclosed. They were accepted into the Manchester United under-14 team in 2022, and it is possible that their age was artificially reduced. The identity of the player who transferred to Manchester City has not been disclosed.

Cases of artificially reducing the age of young players are common in world football. This allows them to shine in youth and children's competitions. However, when they step into senior football, such players often fail to fully realize their potential.
