England youth international Malcolm Ebiowei has turned down a move to Manchester United despite attempts from manager Erik ten Hag to sway the youngster with a text.
Ebiowei, who turns 19 in September, has been in high demand after impressing under Wayne Rooney at Derby County. However, despite Ten Hag's efforts, the winger has opted to move to Crystal Palace.
The youngster will be reunited with former Derby teammate Luke Plange at Selhurst Park, after the forward joined Patrick Vieira's side in January but finished the season on loan at Pride Park. And the move sees Vieira add further English talent to his young squad after defensive duo Marc Guehi and Tyrick Mitchell earned their first caps for the Three Lions in 2022.
