Vietnamese-origin player plays for Man United youth team

(NLDO) - U18 Man United recently introduced some new faces. Among them, Jariyah Shah stands out as a player of Vietnamese origin.

Jariyah Shah is a young player of Manchester United, born in 2009 in Australia. The young striker of the "Red Devils" has a Pakistani father and a Vietnamese mother.

At the age of 16, Shah made his debut for Man United U18 in the second half of the team's 2-1 win over Wolves yesterday (February 18) at Man United's Carrington Youth Training Center. The Vietnamese-born striker's debut was rated as very good.

This opportunity for Sah and some other teammates to play came after some U18 players were promoted to the U21 team on Monday.

The young striker previously joined Man United in 2023 from Doncaster Rovers. A deal worth several hundred thousand pounds for three 14-year-old players including Shah, Zac Watson and Neitan Barbosa.

Jariyah Shah is a young Man United striker with half Vietnamese blood.

Shah played for the U16 team and played alongside Kai Rooney - son of Man United legend Wayne Rooney.

Shah's family moved to England when he was a child, so the 16-year-old striker is a British citizen. Therefore, Shah can currently play for four teams: England (thanks to his British nationality), Pakistan, Vietnam and Australia.

With his progress at United, he is attracting much attention for his international options.

In addition, with an ongoing injury crisis in the first team at the moment, coach Ruben Amorim had to call up a number of young players to fill his bench for the match against Tottenham, where a young player like Chido Obi (17 years old) made his debut.
