Chido Obi lands 'special prize' at La Tournoi
Away from the Club World Cup, CONCACAF Gold Cup and European Under-21 championships, there are a few other football tournaments going on. The prestigious Under-20 Tournoi Maurice Revello concluded in France yesterday, with the host nation beating Saudi Arabia in Sunday's final. Advertisement Manchester United striker Chido Obi missed out on the main prizes as Denmark finished third in the competition and France's Steve Ngoura won the player of the tournament. However, Chido's two goals in the group stage were enough for him to win the organiser's 'Special Award', which is pretty good for a 17-year-old. United boss Ruben Amorim wasn't expecting Chido to make the progress he did last season, which is why he wasn't picked in the Europa League squad for the knockout rounds when it was submitted in February. Chido ended up making eight senior appearances, seven as a substitute - and while he didn't score then, he did find the net on the post-season trip to Hong Kong. With United determined to strengthen their striking department, it will be fascinating to see what 2025-26 has in store for the former Arsenal youngster.
