Manchester United’s teenage starlet Ayden Heaven has decided against representing Ghana at this summer’s World Cup to focus fully on fighting for his first senior England cap.
Heaven has enjoyed a festive burst to savour. After beginning December by getting hooked at half-time against West Ham, the 19-year-old has started United’s subsequent four Premier League fixtures. The Arsenal academy graduate anchored the middle of a back three during a defensive injury crisis for Ruben Amorim before excelling in a flat four-man rearguard against Newcastle United.
