Darren Fletcher will look after his sons after they join Manchester United. their father is a technical director from rivals Manchester City.
United will pay City a fee of around £1.25m. Harrison Palmer, also 16 years old, is moving to City instead. Fletcher could have been heavily involved in the negotiations, but it turned out that the former United midfielder had taken a backseat and let his sons make their own decision.

One of the United employees got into the heat
One of the United employees suffered from the heat at the Metlife stadium. Poor John Allen, the club's press officer, had to sit through the whole game and penalty shootout in a suit, and it was so hot – 35 degrees Celsius or more – that his feet were not too happy about the very elegant, if impractical Paul Smith boots that he wore. Suffice it to say that it was not surprising to see Allen grimacing as he hobbles through the mixed zone where post-game interviews are held.
