Manchester United's teenage sensation Amir Ibragimov is seen as the next big thing at the club.

The 15-year-old put in an impressive display in a recent Under-16s win over Newcastle United.

Ibragimov scored four goals in a recent game, which included a free-kick and a penalty.

Raducio King - a player for Manchester Futsal Club - oversaw his initial trial at the club.

He told the MEN: "His never-give-in mentality is what impresses me the most - if you need someone to sprint for you in the last seconds to clear the ball because there's a counter-attack, he'd be your kid. There aren't many I've seen that can run like him.

"I could see him playing as a No 10, like a Wayne Rooney role, driving forward, switching balls, tackling, attacking, you name it.

We don't want Amir to lose his flair or creativity and as a technical coach of his, he's got all the tools in his toolbox to succeed."
