Reason why Man Utd twins Jack and Tyler Fletcher play for different countries
Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim included both Fletcher brothers on his bench for the Premier League clash with Newcastle United on Boxing Day. After Jack made his Premier League debut less than a week ago, appearing as a substitute during United's defeat to Aston Villa.
Amorim is dealing with a shortage of players, with both Bruno Fernandes and Kobbie Mainoo sidelined through injury. He anticipates Mainoo will return before captain Fernandes, and would have been relieved to welcome back Casemiro following a one-match suspension.
The Fletcher twins, sons of former United midfielder Darren, switched to the Red Devils from Manchester City's academy in 2023. A reported sum of £1.25million was sufficient to secure both youngsters for Old Trafford, where they have been featuring at youth level.
