Twins Jack Fletcher and Tyler Fletcher have received the exact same message from father Darren Fletcher ahead of Manchester United’s forthcoming Premier League encounter with Burnley.
Jack Fletcher has been knocking on the door of the Manchester United first-team squad after his emergence from the Red Devils’ youth academy set-up.

The 18-year-old Red Devils talent made his Premier League debut in the 2025-26 season under Ruben Amorim, who was sacked as United manager on Monday.
Jack came off the bench for his United debut in the 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa at Villa Park in December 2025 and has made a further two Premier League appearances.
Unlike his twin brother Jack, Tyler Fletcher had not received his senior Red Devils debut before United axed Ruben Amorim from the Premier League club.

“They have been in the squad recently, but obviously we have got a couple of players back from injury, so we will assess that tomorrow and we will have to assess a couple of players tomorrow due to the short turnaround from games.
“They are in the periphery squad, but whether they make the match squad I don’t know yet; that remains to be seen.”
