Erik ten Hag has reportedly decided on the future of one Manchester United academy star ahead of the 24/25 campaign.

This summer, the Red Devils travelled to the United States for their pre-season tour.

During their time in the States, United lost to Arsenal and won against Real Betis before ending their tour with a 3-0 defeat against Arne Slot’s Liverpool.

The likes of Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Mason Mount and Casemiro were all in action along with some of the club’s biggest youth prospects.

Youngsters such as Harry Amass, Rhys Bennett, Toby Collyer and Ethan Wheatley were all given the chance to impress.

With the new season edging ever closer, it has been reported that Ten Hag has made a decision on one youngster.

As reported by The Athletic, full-back Amass is ‘expected to continue the season with United’.

Meanwhile, a decision will be made on Collyer who Ten Hag rates but will have to work out whether to loan him out to keep him at the club to further develop.

Speaking about the experience of going on tour with United, youngster Bennett said: “First of all, it's minutes in the legs and a great experience for me personally and the rest of the young players.

“It's one of those things, with it being pre-season. Obviously you want to win every game that you go into. I think we were unlucky.”

He added: “We had some good spells in the first half, and the second half also, but it's unfortunate that we didn't get the result we wanted.

“I've enjoyed it. I've taken everything as it comes. I've worked hard in training, got a lot out of it, and obviously it's a bonus when you can play in games like that with world-class players around you.

“Playing next to world-class players, playing against world-class players; it's something that I'll keep taking with me on my journey.”

United will take on rivals Manchester City this weekend in the FA Community Shield at Wembley.
