5 Man United youngsters that can feature in Cadiz friendly
Man United return to action on Wednesday when they face La Liga side Cadiz in a friendly game.
The Red Devils’ squad for this game is mostly filled with youth-level players that can get some exposure in the games.
So here we’ll look at the 5 youngsters that can feature in the Cadiz friendly clash.
Zidane Iqbal
The Iraqi midfielder was really impressive in pre-season and should get another shot at impressing Erik ten Hag in the upcoming friendlies.
Iqbal oozes confidence on the ball, boasts impressive passing ability, resilience to pressing and he has the ability to unlock defences with a clever final third pass. He’s likely to play a big role in the Cadiz game and will look to lighten things up with his brilliance in midfield.
Charlie McNeill
McNeill has been a rapidly rising player in the United youth levels, having scored 34 goals in 35 appearances for the U18 side. He’s got a razor edge to his game, being able to sniff out goals and be a menace in the box.
McNeill has been taken to the Spain training camp because of the lack of available strikers. This means he should get some game time and will aim to win over the gaffer by getting among the goals in the upcoming games.
Shola Shoretire
The 18-year-old is a really highly-rated player among the United ranks and is known for his versatility as well as immaculate technical ability. Shoretire has scored 5 goals in 10 appearances for United’s U23s this season and been on the bench for the senior side a couple of times.
He’ll look to prove his quality to Ten Hag in the Cadiz game, creating chances regularly and also providing a goal-scoring threat.
Charlie Savage
Like Iqbal, Charlie Savage was another success story in the pre-season campaign of Asia. He hasn’t really played for the senior side after that, but that should change in the friendly games.
Savage is a hard-working, aggressive defensive midfielder who can shield the backline well and also help with the ball progressions from defence into attack. These upcoming two games can be a platform for him to prove why Ten Hag should make him a permanent member of the senior squad.
Kobbie Mainoo
Better recognized as the next Paul Pogba, Kobbie Mainoo is a midfielder packed with endless potential. He’s a multi-talented midfielder who has a lot of tricks up his arsenal. Mainoo’s passing ability is exquisite and varied, while he can also dribble past opposition players with ease.
He has that special goal in him too and can really lighten up games with moments of brilliance. Mainoo will need to take whatever minutes he gets in the upcoming game to fast-track his progress to the senior team.
