The 20-time English league champions have already agreed a pre-contract deal with Cristian Orozco, who is in Manchester to formalise the signing<\/a>.<\/p>\n Mouhamed Dabo had a great trial with United<\/p>\n And there were expectations that United would also sign Senegalese wonderkid Mouhamed Dabo, who impressed the coaching staff during his recent trial<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Senegal U18 international also had a trial at La Masia for Barcelona, and competition for his services were heating up with only formal and technical steps left for United to agree the deal.<\/p>\n Officiel : apr\u00e8s des essais \u00e0 Manchester United il y a deux mois, Mouhamed Dabo signe avec le NK Kusto\u0161ija, en D3 \ud83c\udded\ud83c\uddf7. \u2014 Taggat (@taggatsn) December 1, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n However, in a stunning twist, the midfield gem has decided to sign for NK Kustosija in the Croatian third division, with the club announcing the signing on social media.<\/p>\n The post<\/a> read, \u201cOne of the most talented midfielders in the world and captain of the Senegalese U-17 national team \u2013 Mouhamed Dabo has signed a multi-year contract with NK Kusto\u0161ija!<\/p>\n Stunning twist, no logical explanation yet<\/p>\n \u201cThe 17-year-old Senegalese, who was sought after by numerous world giants, grew up at the Be Sport football academy in the capital Dakar, where he has already become a regular player for the senior team, and will arrive on the Kusto\u0161ija Riviera on July 1st next year!\u201d<\/p>\n Mouhamed Dabo will officially join NK Kusto\u0161ija next summer, but the entire episode does not add up. How can a midfield talent who has already impressed Barca and United youth coaches choose to sign for a Croatian third-division club.<\/p>\n Maybe, he did not impress during his trial, maybe it was his agent driving the rumours. Or maybe, the Old Trafford side hesitated and the Be Sport Academy graduate did not want to wait any longer.<\/p>\n Either way, things will become clearer in the future regarding why a move did not pan out. Fans should not fret too much as INEOS remain keen on adding talents to the academy pipeline and more such gems will continue to be unearthed.<\/p>\n The Peoples Person has been one of the world\u2019s leading Man United news sites for over a decade.
