MU wonderkid Obi-Martin celebrates landmark moment with another goal for U18

Manchester United star Chido Obi-Martin's fruitful start at his new club continued as he scored for the under-18s in their victory over Stoke on Saturday.

After winning a penalty after being brought down following a quick run into the penalty area late in the second half, Obi-Martin stepped up to take the resulting penalty and duly converted to put United ahead.

Fellow academics James Scanlon and Dante Plunkett added further goals to secure a 3–0 win for Adam Lawrence's side.

By opening the scoring, Obi-Martin took his tally to 37 goals in the U18 Premier League, setting a new record in the competition.

Obi-Martin's share price has continued to rise since United won the Danish youth international from Arsenal this summer.

After breaking multiple records and training with Arsenal's first team at just 15 years old, Obi-Martin was offered a scholarship contract by the North London club, but ultimately chose to turn it down in order to to join United.

The highly-acclaimed striker signed his first professional contract with United this week, ahead of his 17th birthday on Friday.

During his time with the Gunners, Obi-Martin scored a record 32 goals in just 20 appearances for the Gunners Under-18 side.

His return last season was the most ever scored by an Arsenal player at that level in a single season, beating Folarin Balogun's previous record.

Last season, Obi-Martin scored ten goals in one match for Arsenal Under-16s against Liverpool.

He also scored seven Under-18 goals against Norwich and netted five against West Ham.
