A former Manchester United youngster Febian Brandy is hosting football trials for young, unsigned players through his 'Skouted' app.
Brandy joined United as an eight-year-old and played alongside the likes of Danny Drinkwater, Gerard Pique and Giuseppe Rossi, Fabio and Rafael da Silva and Tom Cleverley.
He represented a plethora of clubs in his career but these days Brandy is helping the talent of tomorrow.
Skouted, which has been compared to LinkedIn and allows players to upload profiles with the hope of getting noticed, is used by clubs in the Premier League, Bundesliga, MLS, Serie A, La Liga and many more.
The growth of Skouted has been astronomical and they have a number of football trial events coming up as players look for the opportunity at the big-time.

The event takes place at Platt Lane and the best player from the trials will win a brand new pair of football boots.
