Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag speaks about young players
Manchester United have a few young guns in their ranks. The likes of Alejandro Garnacho (19) and Kobbie Mainoo (18) have flourished this season and have become mainstays in the first team.
Ten Hag has now said that more youngsters can soon become a part of the first team. The Dutch manager said (via United's official website):
"You assess the potential of the player. We were convinced of those players and I think we still have, in the back of our squad, such young players who can also make those steps, like Kobbie and Garnacho, who have also made [those] in the last couple of months."
Apart from the youth academy products, United also have Rasmus Hojlund (21), Diogo Dalot (24), and more in their ranks. All of these names are still in their early 20s and could potentially serve the club long-term.
