#7 Angel Gomes
The most famous name in the list of all the teenagers, Angel Gomes has been one of the most exciting players on the Manchester United roster. The 17-year old had made history by being the first Premier League player born after 2000 to make his debut for Manchester United when he substituted Manchester United legend and all-time leading scorer Wayne Rooney in the 88th minute in 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace.
The 2017 Jimmy Murphy Youth Team Player of the Year was born in Salford and joined the United Academy as a child, signing a formal contract at 13. He made his U18 appearance at the age of 14 and made his U23 appearance last year, at the age of 16.
The young lad, a family friend of former Red Devil Nani, started his United career coming on as a substitute on the final day of the 2014/15 season. The next season saw the England U17 international making more appearances for the U18 side while also bagging the Most Promising Player award at the Manchester United Premier Cup despite United finishing a poor 12th.
The 2016/17 season finally saw the young talent breaking into the U18 first XI, the teenager scored his first ever hattrick in 2016, becoming the youngest ever to do so since 2001 and the third youngest in the clubs history. The young attacking midfielder ended the 16/17 season with 20 appearances scoring 12 goals and registering 6 assist ending his wonderful season with his first ever Manchester United first team appearance coming on as an 88th-minute substitute to Wayne Rooney while also becoming the youngest ever winner of the Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year award.
The U-17 World Cup commitments in India, which England won, saw the young Gomes restricting his U18 appearances to just 6 scoring 3 and registering 1 assist in it in the last season. It also saw the Salford born lad make his first appearance for the reserves as he made 4 appearances for the Red Devils while also making his first UEFA Youth League debut scoring 2 goals in 7 appearances and ending the season with his second appearance for the Red Devils again coming on in the 88th minute in place of Marcus Rashford in 4-0 victory over Yeovil Town.
Angel Gomes is rated as one of the best prospects to come out of the United Academy since the Class of 92 and possesses an excellent passing range, ball control, astute positional sense and an eye for goal leading to a comparison with the Brazilian and Barcelona legend Ronaldinho.
