England defender Harry Maguire believes Manchester United have found their own Jude Bellingham in starlet Kobbie Mainoo.
"I don't see why not," said Maguire. "To play at a major tournament, obviously, it's big to have experience but also the young boys do come in and sometimes they play with no fear and they can excel in that way. "He's got everything, he can handle the ball brilliantly. He's really strong, powerful, and you can see the progression to play that role, especially for Manchester United.
"A role and responsibility for the senior players at Manchester United is to bring through academy players. The club is always built on giving opportunities to young boys, we have numerous of them training with us a lot, we try and make them feel welcome.
