Headley

COMPETITIVE, HARD-WORKIND DEFENDER

Local lad Dante has been with Manchester City’s Academy since his junior academy days.

In every age group, Headley has been an impactful player. 

A super competitive defender, he has the ability to play in a variety of positions too from across the defensive line to midfield if needed. 

Offering a strong technical ability and ambition to succeed, Headley was part of the Under-18s squad for the 2024/25 campaign. 

He made 18 appearances in all competitions as he helped City win the Under-18 Premier League North.

He’ll be looking to add to his Under-18s minutes in 2025/26, his second season under Oliver Reiss.
