Noah Ajayi breaks silence after opening Manchester United account

Noah Ajayi is one of many exciting prospects to currently play in the Manchester United academy.

The German, who joined United in July of 2025, currently plays for the Under-18s side as a 16-year-old having moved to England aged ten.

Furthermore, he plays a forward and made his debut for the Under-21s side in April with the 16-year-old coming off the bench for the side in a 3-0 win against Reading.

After this, Ajayi went onto make his debut for the Under-18s the very next day in another 3-0 victory.

Noah Ajayi went onto make one more appearance before the end of the 2025 season before signing his scholarship with Manchester United in July.

With his scholarship signed, success, progression, and growth could be pivotal for the forward if he is to progress towards the first-team in the coming years.

Furthermore, as a forward, goal-scoring will also be pivotal.

Now, following the forward scoring against Newcastle United for the Under-18s in their 3-0 victory on Saturday, the 16-year-old has broke his silence on X.

On his account on the platform, Ajayi stated that was “buzzing to bag my first goal for the u18s! “Even more hyped about the team performance though, let’s keep pushing!”

With this statement not public, it is clear to see the excitement that the goal against Newcastle caused for the 16-year-old.

However, arguably, Ajayi’s ambition and teamwork shines through as he signals towards future games and praises his team for their performance in the game.

Now, attention could turn towards the Under-18s next game against Peterborough United’s Under-18s on Tuesday where the forward could score his first FA Youth Cup goal should he feature in the fixture.

Attention could also turn to the team’s next league fixture against Stoke City’s Under-18s.
