Exciting young winger Kelly N'Mai is in his second year with the Academy after joining us in 2020.

The 17-year-old was a regular in the EFL Youth Alliance in 2020-21, and in pre-season 2021 impressed Gary Bowyer with his attitude and work rate. He featured a couple of times in pre-season before making his debut as a substitute in the 3-0 win against Newport County in August 2021. He became the first academy player to play a league game for Salford when he was handed a start away at Scunthorpe United in November 2021.

Kelly has previously been in the academies of both Manchester City and United, and had been playing grassroots football around Salford along with team mates Ben Collins and Djavan Pedro when the trio were signed by The Ammies.
