Luke Shaw namechecks Man Utd wonderkid as the one young player fans need to watch out for

Luke Shaw has picked out one Manchester United wonderkid that fans need to watch out for.

Over the years, United have produced some of the best players the world of football has ever seen.

The likes of David Beckham, Gary Neville, Marcus Rashford, Paul Scholes and Bobby Charlton all played for United’s academy.

In a recent interview with GOAL, current United and England full-back Shaw has picked out the young player that fans need to look out for.

Shaw was asked: “One young player people should watch out for?”

The Englishman replied: “He’s a young left-back from Man Utd, Harry Amass.”

Last August, Amass left the Watford academy to join the youth ranks at Old Trafford and has impressed since moving to the club.

For the U18 side, Amass has scored once and provided four assists in 22 matches.

Back in April, Amass was named on the bench for United’s Premier League clash against Liverpool, a match that eventually ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw.

Shaw is currently away on international duty after he was selected to represent England at Euro 2024.

The 28-year-old has been struggling with an injury and has not played for United since February but Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate was willing to take a risk on him.

Heading into the tournament, Southgate said: “If we don't win, I probably won't be here anymore. So maybe it is the last chance.

“I think around half the national coaches leave after a tournament – that's the nature of international football. I've been here almost eight years now and we've come close.”
