One to watch! Man Utd youngster James Scanlon bags FOUR goals as Red Devils' Under-18s run riot in 9-0 rout of Blackburn

The Red Devils' Under-18 team romped to an emphatic 9-0 win over Blackburn with Scanlon catching the eye on his 18th birthday. United's teenage star celebrated in style by scoring four of his team's goals, with Gabriele Biancheri, Zachary Baymann, Dante Plunkett and Godweill Kukonki the other scorers for the hosts.

Scanlon is certainly one to keep an eye on at Manchester United and was part of the Under-18 squad that enjoyed a stunning season last time out by winning the Premier League North, Premier League Cup and the national title. The team appear to have picked up where they loft off in the current campaign, as they have won all five league games so far and netted 22 goals along the way.

Scanlon is already a full international for Gibraltar. The Manchester United youngster made his international debut back in February in a 1-0 defeat to Lithuania.

Scanlon will be hoping to continue his form with the ultimate aim of attempting to convince Erik ten Hag he deserves some first-team minutes. Meanwhile, Manchester United's youth ranks have been boosted this week by the arrival of highly-rated talent Chido Obi-Martin from Arsenal.
