Manchester United starlet Ethan Ennis could soon make another step towards the senior team.
The Manchester Evening News claims Ennis is attracting loan interest ahead of the January transfer window.
Several Championship and League One clubs are eyeing a winter move.
Ennis has impressed with his technical ability and eye for goal. He has bagged ten goals in 15 games in all competitions this season.
He produced a marvellous display for the United Under 21s in their 4-0 victory over Altrincham, scoring a brilliant hat-trick.
His third goal against Altrincham showed the quick burst of acceleration he possessed.
His exquisite chip over the goalkeeper displayed calmness in a tense 1v1 situation.
United manager Ruben Amorim has a proven track record of developing young players, and a successful loan spell could make a huge impact.
Amad Diallo’s fantastic loan stint with Sunderland is a great example. Ennis could follow in Diallo’s footsteps if he impresses on loan.
Amorim may hand Ennis his senior debut next season if he succeeds in his temporary spell away.
A loan move would provide valuable experience and help him develop physically.
Reporter Steven Railston described him as ‘impossible to ignore‘ after his exploits this term.
Ennis’ progress will be closely monitored by United’s coaching staff. The ball is in his court to prove himself and make his case to Amorim.
