Where are they now? (Former) Manchester United trainees
I thought it would be a nice idea to keep track of our (former) trainees, to see how they're getting on; to see if there's any real problems in our Academy in terms of producing talent.
I don't want to list every single one who's played for us at some time, so I'll simply be starting with all the players in our Under-18s and Reserves this season (2008/2009), as well as those who transferred at the end of last season. I'm sure I'm missing people, so do tell. So... At Manchester United Ben Amos Antonio Bryan James Chester Tom Cleverley James Derbyshire Danny Drinkwater Richard Eckersley Magnus Eikrem Jonny Evans Corry Evans Fábio da Silva Daniel Galbraith Darron Gibson David Gray Sam Hewson Matthew James Federico Macheda Rodrigo Possebon Rafael da Silva Danny Welbeck Ron-Robert Zieler Nicky Ajose Robert Brady Evandro Brandão Reece Brown Chris Curran James Derbyshire Conor Devlin Joe Dudgeon Oliver Gill Joshua King Scott Moffatt Oliver Norwood David Petrucci Cameron Stewart Kenny Strickland Gary Woods Scott Wootton On loan Febian Brandy (Swansea) Fraizer Campbell (Tottenham) Craig Cathcart (Plymouth) Lee Martin (Nottingham Forest) Danny Simpson (Blackburn) Tom Heaton (Cardiff City) Former players Chris Eagles (Burnley, undisclosed) Kieran Lee (Oldham, free) Michael Lea (Scunthorpe, free) Séan Evans (Aberystwyth Town, free) Michael Barnes (Northwich Victoria, free; released September 2008) Conor McCormack (Triestina, free) Chris Fagan (Glenn Hoddle Academy, free) Ritchie Jones (Hartlepool, free) |

Chris Fagan is part of the Glenn Hoddle Academy.
Planning to try and compile a list like this for my site once I've got player profiles finally done, quite interesting to see where everyone is. |

I could name all of them but that would mean that the list would be too large.
It's not too hard to figure out where all our former trainees went but I'm trying to start one from now. |

Played Total Club Manager 2005 a couple of months back and saw these two, and it was weird. And Kleberson was actually good... |

A few off the top of my head
Craig Lawton - left United for Port Vale, now at a Welsh Club, Bala Town. He played for Connah's Quay for years. Dessie Baker - left United for 7 years at Shelbourne. He is now at Shamrock Rovers. Arthur Gomez - signed by United at sent by them on loan to Antwerp to get a work permit. His contract wasn't renewed after he was eligable for one. He is now at Henan in China. Colin McKee - left United in 1994 and went around various Scottish clubs. His last club was Foldhouse or something like that before retiring. They were all decent players on FM at one stage, apart from Dessie Baker. |

Souleymane Mamam has been on trial at Birmingham City for the last couple of weeks and they're close to making a decision on whether or not to offer him a contract.
