Manchester United starlet JJ Gabriel requests to leave club

In England, Manchester United's 15-year-old academy prospect JJ Gabriel has asked to leave the club, surprising the team. He was named Under-18 Premier League player of the year last season and scored a hat trick in his UEFA Youth League debut. The club is unclear why he wants to leave and hopes to resolve it. He was due to make his first-team debut in a League Cup match against Brighton. Just last week, former United players Ryan Giggs and Rio Ferdinand praised him as a generational talent.
