It's interesting to see that many of them playing for our rivals and we actually never considered buying them (with a considerable number of them playing for CHELSEA!)
Ben Chilwell
Christian Pulisic
Raheem Sterling
Son Heung Min (his Idols were unsurprisingly Ronaldo and Park)
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
John Stones
Eric Dier
Séamus Coleman
Gylfi Sigurðsson
James Maddison
David Brooks
Joe Allen
Charlie Adams
Michael Essien (his idol was Roy Keane)
John Terry
Damien Duff
Aaron Ramsey
Juan Cuadrado
Benni McCarthy
Manuel Akanji
Players who may be Man utd fans:
Jordan Henderson - he never claims he supported Man Utd but his once said in an interview that his childhood idols were Giggs, Scholes and Beckham
Kasper Schmeichel - he never claims he supported Man Utd but his once said in an interview that his childhood idols were Giggs and Cantona
Though we actually signed some players that supported us growing up through our academy
David Beckham
Paul Scholes (he claimed he supported both Oldham and Man Utd as a kid)
Ryan Giggs
Nicky Butt
Neville Brothers
Wes Brown
Jesse Lingard
Jonny Evans
Marcus Rashford
Scott McTominay
Darron Gibson
While some of our academy players actually supported other clubs:
Darren Fletcher - Celtic fan
John OShea - Liverpool fan as a kid
Pogba - Arsenal fan
Ravel Morrison - Arsenal fan
You also may (or may not know) that some of our own bought-in players actually supported Man Utd as a kid:
Bruno Fernandes
Eric Djemba-Djemba (his idol was Eric Cantona , that's why he named himself Eric)
Liam Miller (RIP)
Dong Fangzhuo
Alexis Sanchez
Anders Lindegaard
Odion Ighalo
Lee Grant
Bastian Schweinsteiger (his favorite club was Bayern but Man Utd was always his favorite non-German club, probably due to his brother's influence)
There are rumours that Aaron Wan-Bissaka supported Man Utd as a kid but he actually didn't. His family were all Man Utd fans (so his family took pictures of awb in Man Utd kits) but he loved Arsenal.
Special Mention:
Gareth Southgate also claim he was a Man Utd fan growing up and he made one of this two dreams 1. Represent England 2. Represent Man Utd
Any more players you know who support Man Utd???
