The son of former Ipswch and Tottenham star Jason, spent the second half of last seaosn on loan at Birmingham and had earlier in the summer been linked with a move to United with those reports ramping up this week.

United are short on numbers at present, with a huge rebuild seeing just four players come in so far, following a summer exodus and another key man left on Saturday morning with Jayden Bogle joining Leeds United.

So far, this summer’s pre-season friendlies have seen a large number of academy players filling up the squads.

Dozzell made 37 apperances in all last season, 10 of them coming for Birmingham after a January move from QPR. He has 126 Championship appearances under his belt, scoring five goals.
