Ben Amos Signs For Hull City

Ben Amos

Ben Amos has signed for Foot­ball League Cham­pi­on­ship team Hull City on a sea­son long loan. The prom­ising shot stop­per, who re­cently signed a new three-year deal with Manchester United, has pre­vi­ously spent time on loan at Pe­ter­bor­ough United, Molde, and Old­ham Ath­letic in or­der to ac­quire some valu­able first team experience.

Ben Amos is un­deni­ably a com­pet­ent and highly con­fid­ent goal­keeper, but the 22-year-old needs to play more first team foot­ball be­cause he has been down the peck­ing or­der at Manchester United for quite some time now. Born and raised in nearby Mac­cle­s­field, the goal­keep­ing pro­spect was dis­covered by Manchester United scouts when he was only ten years old and joined the Old Traf­ford club at the ripe young age of el­even. An Eng­land youth in­ter­na­tional, he has played for the coun­try of his birth at the Under-16, Under-17, Under-18, Under-19 and Under-20 levels. Ben Amos: “When people asked me what I wanted to do as a job, it was to play for Manchester  United. I watched Peter Schmeichel play­ing and I had my mind set on it from then. I think that I have worked too hard not to be pa­tient and ob­vi­ously you don’t want to give up on your dream. Whilst I am not play­ing reg­u­larly, I still be­lieve I can do it. While that be­lief is there, I will persevere.”
