Souleymane Mamam Joins Royal Antwerp on loan

Manchester United have loaned out another of their young stars to Belgian feeder club Royal Antwerp. Tongan international Souleymane Mamam has joined the Belgians on a 1-year loan deal.

Souleymane holds the record for the youngest player ever to be involved in a World Cup qualifying match. He was brought on as a substitute for Tonga at the age of 13 against Zambia in May 2001

Mamam, 16, has joined fellow United youngsters: Hussain, Athur Gomez, David Fox and Colin Heath at Antwerp to give them vital first team experience, which is essential for them.

The Great Old's club secretary, Paul Bistiaux, has commented on the progress of the rest of United's players at Antwerp. Saying: " Things are going quite well with David (Fox) and Colin (Heath.)"

"Hussian has been doing well and is a first team regular,"

" Arthur (Gomez) is yet to make his mark though," He went on.

Good Luck Souleymane...
