New report reveals the Man Utd academy starlet on 'everyone's lips right now' who coaches are getting very excited about
A new report has revealed the Manchester United academy starlet that is on 'everyone's lips right now' and coaches are getting very excited about.
Man United's youth academy has consistently produced talent for the first-team, with Dan Gore, Harry Amass and Ethan Wheatley recently graduating.
Not to mention established first-team players Marcus Rashford and Kobbie Mainoo, who has shot to fame after his stunning performance against Everton last season.

And there's a player on 'everyone's lips right now' that is being watched closely by technical director Jason Wilcox.
According to The Daily Mail, Man United are getting very excited about Gabriele Biancheri.
Wilcox was in attendance to see Biancheri score twice in the U18s final league game of last season
The attacker has started the season in electric form as he looks to follow in the footsteps of Wheatley, who made the jump last season.
The report states Man United have been eager to ensure almost all the players in their under-18 and under-21 groups experience first-team training sessions.
Biancheri, who turns 18 in the next fortnight, is among those to benefit from being exposed to that level.
He's benefitted from rubbing shoulders with the Red Devils first-team squad, having started the season with a goal versus Manchester City in the U18 league opener, a brace in the U18 Premier League Cup against Leicester City, scoring with his first touch in the U21 clash at Blackburn Rovers and scoring in the U18s 2-0 win over Liverpool.
The Welsh youngster bagged 17 goals for the U18s last season, adding two more for the U21s that left him just one short of Wheatley's season total of 22 goals.
Biancheri's showings have coaches and scouts 'salivating' at his potential. Remember the name.
