The 20-year-old has been training with the Manchester United squad since they arrived back from their holidays last week and has spoken about who he feels are the toughest players to train against.

“It’s very good, very hard as well,” he told The United Stand after the Leeds fixture.

“You need to stay focused and concentrate every day. You can only take that experience and learn from it”

When asked if there were any standout players to play against in training, he explained: “Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez, two World Cup champions. They are all tough to train with and play against. I cannot name one [standout player].”

“It was a very proud moment, first goal for United, very happy,” he concluded. “It was my first assist as well.”
