The short version
- Harry Amass left agent Jason Mac and joined M+C Saatchi Football in August, per the Daily Mail.
- United were reportedly willing to sell the defender for as little as £6 million.
- Burnley, Wolves, Norwich and European clubs explored a summer move.
- A January loan or transfer is considered probable if his playing time does not improve.
The 19-year-old defender, who sought a summer move away from Old Trafford, has joined a new agency ahead of the January window.
Manchester United defender Harry Amass has reportedly changed representation as he weighs his future at Old Trafford. According to the Daily Mail, the 19-year-old left long-standing agent Jason Mac in August and joined M+C Saatchi Football, an agency launched with Jamie Redknapp.
Amass was open to leaving United during the summer transfer window in search of regular first-team football. The club had considered selling the academy graduate, with reports suggesting it would have accepted a fee as low as £6 million.
Burnley made a late attempt to sign him before the window closed, while Wolverhampton Wanderers, Norwich City and clubs elsewhere in Europe also considered a move. No transfer materialized and Amass remained at United, where playing time has been scarce this season.
The Daily Mail reports that multiple agents are hoping to win the teenager's business, and that Championship sides as well as clubs in Germany and the Netherlands view him as a January target. A loan move or permanent departure next window appears likely unless his situation improves.
Amass featured in United's Champions League win over Sabah FK, coming on as a substitute for the final 18 minutes.
