Manchester United fans offered half-price tickets to watch loanee

Altrincham have offered United fans 50% off tickets to their fixture against Solihull Moors this coming Saturday.

The National League club have been extremely impressed by Manchester United U18 midfielder, Maxi Oyedele, with the youth player scoring twice in his three appearances for the Robins.

Oyedele is touted to start this weekend, prompting the club to make an offer to United fans to see their player continue to perform in the early stages of his career.

The midfielder typically plays a defensive role but has the ability to perform further forward when required to do so.

Given the current pedigree in this position at the club in the forms of Bruno Fernandes, Casemiro, Fred, Scott McTominay, Christian Eriksen and Kobby Mainoo, it is highly unlikely that Oyedele will feature for the first team for at least the next couple of years.

All United fans need to do to access the discount is apply the code “mufc50” when buying tickets online and present evidence of their affiliation with Manchester United at the stadium when attending the match.

Given the close proximity of Altrincham to Manchester, this could prove to be a fantastic opportunity to start an important weekend for United fans, before they make the trip down to London for their Carabao Cup final against Newcastle on Sunday evening.

The Carabao Cup final kicks off at 16:30 GMT, with Manchester United looking to claim their first piece of silverware since 2017.
