Thu Nov 07 23:03:54 UTC 2024: ## Manchester United Set to Debut Youngster Harry Amass in Europa League Clash
**Manchester, England** – Manchester United are set to give young defender Harry Amass his senior club debut in Thursday’s Europa League match against PAOK FC, according to reports. The 17-year-old left-back could make his long-awaited appearance after impressing in pre-season and with the club struggling for options at the position.
United have been plagued by injuries to established left-backs Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia, forcing manager Erik ten Hag to deploy makeshift solutions throughout the campaign. The club has relied on the likes of Diogo Dalot, Noussair Mazraoui, Victor Lindelof and Lisandro Martinez to fill the void, with Mazraoui particularly impressive against Chelsea last weekend.
Amass, who was part of the United squad that toured the United States during pre-season, has been heavily tipped for a first-team breakthrough by fans and pundits alike. His strong performances against Arsenal, Real Betis and Liverpool in those pre-season fixtures have fueled expectations for his debut.
“The chatter this week among the youth players is that a debut could well be in store for one of them against PAOK in the Europa League,” revealed a source close to the club. “Sources suggest to Confidential that 17-year-old Harry Amass has been earmarked for minutes, more likely off the bench, on Thursday night.”
With a wealth of young talent emerging from the United academy, Amass’ potential debut signifies a continued commitment to developing homegrown players. The club’s history of nurturing young talents is well documented, and Amass is eager to join that lineage.
“He’s pushing hard in training,” said a source, highlighting Amass’ determination to seize his opportunity. Should he make an appearance, he will become the latest in a long line of academy graduates to grace the first team at Old Trafford.
