You’ve probably heard the chaos surrounding the Manchester United academy’s big star, JJ Gabriel. 16 years young, restless, with a father who actively pushes the biggest clubs to give his son VIP status. On Thursday, it was announced that Real Madrid and the teenager’s representatives have a verbal agreement. For United legend Ryan Giggs, it is completely incomprehensible that the young player chooses to exit from Man Utd.
Sky Sports’ Florian Plettenberg reported on Thursday: “NEWS | JJ Gabriel and his team are well underway in negotiations with Real Madrid. It’s close. Verbal agreement reached, as reported. Medical examination not scheduled yet. The 16-year-old jewel has decided to go to Real instead of Bayern, PSG and Barcelona. Transfer scheduled for January 1 thanks to his European passport. Manchester United will only receive training compensation. #MUFC.”

Ryan Giggs shakes his head at the decision.
-So far in his career, everything has gone well, why would you disturb that? You’re on the right track, Giggs begins on Rio Ferdinand’s youtube channel.
“I trained as a 15-year-old, I didn’t play for the first team until two years later, so you have to have that patience that people just don’t seem to have at the moment. And believe it or not, first-team football for Man United is completely different to playing in the youth team. Playing pre-season for the first team is completely different,” Giggs continues. Who himself stayed at United until he was 40 years old.
“The first game, yes, you might do well, but you have to do it for 40, 50 games a season. You’re going to get injuries, loss of form, bad results, so you have to be patient. If you’re on the right track, just wait with the time, no matter how good you are.”
