Darren Fletcher’s 16-year-old twin sons, Jack and Tyler, will both join their dad’s former team after agreeing to sign for Manchester United in a transfer deal worth £1.25million
Manchester United have poached Darren Fletcher’s twin sons from Manchester City in a deal worth £1.25million.
Jack and Tyler Fletcher, 16, are both midfielders like their dad and will make the move across Manchester after United moved to bring the talented pair to the club where their father â now technical director â played.
United have countered suggestions the fee is a record for players of their age and fee the figure is an appropriate amount for the duo. The Red Devils have paid higher fees for players of a similar age in the past and their 16-year-old defender Harrison Parker is going the other way for a similar fee.
Striking sensation Charlie McNeill rejoined United from bitter rivals City for an initial £750,000 rising to £1.5m back in 2020. As for the Fletcher twins, dad Darren spent 12 years at United, winning five Premier League titles and one Champions League crown among a slew of honours.
