Manchester City Academy midfielder Jacob Wright has impressed first-team star Manuel Akanji with his performance in training. Wright has been a part of the Manchester City Academy since he was eight years old and signed a scholarship with the club in July 2022. Known for his ability to break up play and provide intelligent distribution, Wright has progressed to the Elite Development Squad and made his senior debut in the FA Cup.

Teammates and coaching staff at Manchester City also recognize Wright’s talent and potential. Central defender Manuel Akanji praised Wright for his excellent performance in training, along with other young players like Oscar Bobb. Akanji commended the young players for their fearlessness and willingness to show their abilities on the pitch.
