Vietnamese-origin player plays for Man United youth team

(NLDO) - U18 Man United recently introduced a number of 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 performance was considered very good.

This opportunity for Sah and some other teammates to play came from the promotion of some U18 players 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 is a British citizen. As a result, Shah can now represent four teams: England (thanks to his British citizenship), Pakistan, Vietnam and Australia.

With his progression at United, he is attracting a lot of attention regarding his international options.

In addition, with an injury crisis currently plaguing the first team, coach Ruben Amorim had to call up a number of youngsters to fill his bench against Tottenham, where a youngster like Chido Obi (17 years old) made his debut.
