Jahmai Simpson-Pusey admits choosing Man City over Man Utd

Manchester City academy defender Jahmai Simpson-Pusey is hoping to win the FA Youth Cup.

The Citizens are set to play in the Youth Cup Final against Leeds United on Friday at their home stadium.

Simpson-Pusey, who had a chance to join Manchester United, chose City for his footballing education.

"I was in between teams. Everton, United, City and I was at City and I didn't like it at the start," he admitted, per Manchester Evening News.

"I went to United and I liked it at United because all they did was play mini games and it wasn't really like proper training.

"But my mum got advice from those who have been in football and asked what would benefit me more and they said to go to City because they did proper training sessions to help the player technically and individually. So I ended up signing for City a year after joining."
