An exciting two-footed striker who has been compared with Pablo Dybala, and top scorer of Premier league North for 2017/18 season triumph.

He evolved from the No. 10 Role to a more advanced role of center-forward. A player who can create and score with both feet, he scored 17 goals in 17 starts during an impressive 2017/18 season and was called up by England U-18 international team.

He is known for his ability with both feet, finishing, vision, flair, first touch and speed which are dream stats for a striker.

With all the spotlight on him, he can soon follow the footsteps of Marcus Rashford under the management of Ole Gunner Solskjaer who made it clear that he wants to bring some academy lads to the senior team.

Ole Gunnar Solskjær has named six teenagers, including Mason Greenwood, and eight academy graduates in his traveling squad to PSG.
