The 21-year-old midfielder, who rose through the ranks at Carrington as many others before him have, is one of our great 21st-century graduates.
After he shone that night at Salford City in the EFL Trophy, many started to take notice, as a young flower began to blossom in United colours.
An FA Youth Cup winner, it was under Erik ten Hag that the initial seed appeared to sprout, which brings us to the modern day, with Kobbie an FA Cup winner with the Reds and an integral part of Michael Carrick’s squad.
Kobbie has now committed his long-term future to the club, giving further proof of his enriching journey that started with our Academy and at Carrington, and now is the time for him to give back.
