Cassim, also 16, meanwhile, comes as another midfield addition to the ranks of the Red Devils.During United's U18s victory over Charlton last month, Cassim was visible among the substitutes during MUTV's broadcast of the fixture, accidentally revealing his switch.At that point, United insiders maintained there remained some administrative procedures before Cassim's move could be deemed official, though no complications were anticipated in securing Premier League approval for the transaction.The Premier League have authorised Eze's switch, with the documentation for Cassim's transfer submitted at approximately the same time, meaning it should receive final approval shortly.United's academy is effectively restricted to a United Kingdom-based recruitment strategy due to Brexit regulations, which explains why the club have been active in securing players from neighbouring sides in recent years.City and Liverpool's senior squads have achieved greater success than United's over the past decade, yet United's academy continues to draw the finest young talent, primarily because of the clear progression route the club can offer.
