Manchester United’s academy continues to produce top talent, and two young stars are reportedly on the verge of first-team promotion next season. According to journalist Samuel Luckhurst, goalkeeper Radek Vitek and left wing-back Harry Amass have impressed so much on loan that a surprise inclusion in Ruben Amorim’s senior squad is being considered.
Harry Amass: Left Wing-Back Sensation
Amass, who made his senior United debut last season, spent the current campaign on loan at Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship. He has featured in all 11 league games and scored a memorable goal against Southampton before the international break. Playing consistently at left wing-back, Amass has showcased both his attacking flair and defensive stability.
At United, the left wing-back position has lacked a clear first-choice, with Patrick Dorgu and Diogo Dalot sharing minutes, and new signing Diego Leon still adapting in the development squads. Amass’ performances put him in strong contention to stake a claim for next season.

Radek Vitek: Goalkeeping Prospect
Meanwhile, 22-year-old goalkeeper Radek Vitek has been on loan at Bristol City, keeping five clean sheets so far — joint-third highest in the Championship this season. With both Altay Bayindir and Andre Onana expected to leave United permanently next summer, and veteran Tom Heaton potentially retiring, Vitek could be promoted to challenge Senne Lammens for the number one shirt.
Looking Ahead
Both Amass and Vitek have shown enough promise on loan to warrant consideration for first-team promotion. Their performances demonstrate United’s ongoing success in developing academy talent capable of making an impact at senior level.
