Manchester United v Tottenham Hotspur: Premier League 2
Tahith Chong impressed in the match against Tottenham U-23

Tahith Chong has emerged as the latest prodigy in the United youth set-up after he was signed for United in 2016 from Feyenoord. The 18-year-old got significant praise following an eye-catching debut for the U23 side against Tottenham on Monday night. United may have lost 3-1 but Chong was outstanding in central midfield, bringing an empty Old Trafford to life with his dribbling, neat touches and impressive finishing.

With Fellaini seemingly out of the first team picture for the time being and with new contract talks put on hold, Tahith Chong has a really good chance of making it if he continues to do well and performs well in the upcoming preseason games. Although it is not given that he will feature as it is more likely Mourinho will buy a new midfielder, but he will be in and around the first team next year, but will surely a force to reckon with in the future.
