Nigerian Duo Set To Be Relegated With Manchester United U23s

Manchester United will need a miracle to avoid relegation from the Premier League 2 at the end of the season.

And if they are not saved, it means talented Nigerian duo Tosin Kehinde and Matthew Olosunde would be playing in the Premier League Division 2 against the likes of Norwich City and Wolves next term.

On Sunday, March 18 United suffered a 2-0 defeat at Swansea City, with Kehinde starting and playing for 60 minutes while Olosunde was not picked in the match day squad.

The Red Devils relegation will be confirmed if they fail to beat Sunderland in their next game after the international break.

Richard Sbragia's boys have been unable to revive their dwindling fortunes in the Premier League 2 ever since the season started and their loss against the Welsh outfit was their tenth defeat this term.

Manchester United's reserve team had been the envy of everyone, with the club crowned champions three times in the last six years.

Tosin Kehinde has suited up 14 times in the Premier League 2, scoring one goal vs Chelsea, while Olosunde has ten appearances to his name.
