Crystal Palace’s Samuel Lusale may be a step closer to sealing a move to Manchester United based on recent revelations.
United’s interest in Lusale was previously reported on The Peoples Person and the move looks to be progressing.
A major update on the young winger’s situation was revealed last night when Crystal Palace announced their first year scholar intake for 2024 with a glaring omission.
The 16 year old star was not included in the list, revealing that he has not signed terms with Crystal Palace and a move looks to be on the cards.
Lusale has also hinted at a move to United being close when he recently posted an Instagram story of himself in what looks like Hotel Football at Old Trafford.

Signalling that he has been in Manchester recently, potentially sealing a move to the club.
A Slovakian u17s international, who is also eligible to represent England and Zambia, Lusale played a key part in qualifying to the u17s Euros with a goal and assist for Slovakia in the qualifiers.
The youngster also already has u18s experience for Crystal Palace with eight appearances but has yet to score his first goal at the level.
An electrifying winger comfortable on either side, Lusale would look to follow in the footsteps of a number of pacey wingers to come through the United academy in recent years including Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford.
After three years with Crystal Palace, a move north looks set for Lusale as a transfer to United draws near.
If the move materialises, he will join the 10 first year scholars who have stepped up from United’s u16s and new signing James Overy in Adam Lawrence’s u18s squad.
Further signings can also be expected to United’s academy as they continue to build on last season’s success stories with more links including to young keeper Robbie Cook.
