Harrison secures loan move
Goalkeeper Elyh Harrison has joined Shrewsbury Town of League Two on loan for the 2025/26 season.
The 19-year-old shot-stopper will relish his second loan move, having enjoyed an impressive six-month spell with Chester in the National League North in 2024/25.
After 18 appearances with the Seals, Harrison returned to United in January to represent the club’s Under-21s and was part of the senior matchday squad for the first time in February as an unused substitute.
Elyh joined United in 2022 from Stevenage and developed well in our Under-18s squad, showing quality and bravery with the ball at his feet as well as fine shot-stopping abilities.
His displays across the 2023/24 season were particularly impressive, as he helped the U18s to an unprecedented trio of trophies, earning the Denzil Haroun Reserve-Team Player of the Year award as a result.
An England Under-19 international, Harrison will play at Shrewsbury under Michael Appleton, a United Academy graduate who won the same Player of the Year award at United in 1996. He went on to make two first-team appearances in his time at Old Trafford, before permanent spells with Preston North End and West Bromwich Albion.
Good luck at New Meadow, Elyh!
