Career

Manchester United

A winger or midfielder, Haygarth entered the Manchester United academy at age 9 and progressed to sign a scholarship in 2018.[4][5] Despite suffering from recurring injury problems,[6] he made appearances for the club's U18 and U23 teams and departed Carrington in January 2021.[7]

Brentford (loan and permanent transfer)

On 16 October 2020, Haygarth joined the B team at Championship club Brentford on loan until January 2021.[6] He won his maiden call into the first team squad for a league match versus Nottingham Forest on 12 December 2020 and made his debut as a substitute for Emiliano Marcondes late in the 3–1 win.[8] On 4 January 2021, Haygarth transferred to the club on a permanent basis and signed a 1+1⁄2-year contract, with the option of a further year.[7] He made two FA Cup appearances in January 2021, but was not involved in Brentford's successful 2021 playoff campaign,[8] which clinched promotion to the Premier League.[9]

Haygarth trained with the first team group during the 2021–22 pre-season and was named in each matchday squad during the period.[10][11][12][13][14][15] His maiden call into a Premier League squad came on 20 November 2021, when he remained an unused substitute during a 3–3 draw with Newcastle United.[8]

Style of play

Haygarth has been described as "a technical operator in the middle of the park or attack, who is capable of making a real impact on matches".[4]
