5 youngsters who were tipped to become the next Cristiano Ronaldo at Manchester United

#3 Wilfred Zaha

The Ivorian spent two years at Manchester United during which he spent three loan spells

The last signing made by Sir Alex Ferguson was Wilfred Zaha from crystal palace. The signing of Zaha excited the United fans owing to his playing style on the left side.

Zaha had speed and was well capable of beating defenders and providing crosses into the box.

But the Ivorian started his Manchester United career under David Moyes which didn’t work out for anybody let alone Zaha.

The Ivorian spent two years at Manchester United during which he spent three loan spells at Crystal Palace (twice) and Cardiff city.

When Zaha arrived, United supporters were excited to see the winger play for United especially because his playing style is similar to a certain Ronaldo.

Unfortunately, things didn’t work out well for Zaha as he only played four times for the red devils and failed to make an impact. He was sold back to his former club crystal palace.
