Post: 15-year-old Scottish midfielder McMeekin rejects Manchester United invitation and chooses to join Manchester City

On October 16, the "Post" reported that 15-year-old Scottish midfielder Keir McMeekin decided to join Manchester City after rejecting Manchester United's invitation.

Keir McMeekin performed well in a series of closed-door games at the beginning of this season, leaving a deep impression on rival coaches. One coach commented that he has "solid skills, confidence on the ball, and the ability to understand the rhythm of the game and make correct decisions."

McMeekin's growth story His story is legendary. Not only did he hone his superb skills by playing futsal, but when he was only 10 years old, inspired by the deeds of Captain Tom Moore, he raised more than 1,800 pounds for charity by throwing the ball one mile every day for 26 consecutive days, showing a character that transcends his age.

In the transfer battle, Manchester United provided McMeekin and his family with a "full Carrington-Old Trafford-Ferguson treat", but in the end he chose Manchester City.
