17-year-old Shola Shoretire made his debut for Manchester United on Sunday, coming on in the final moments of their 3-1 win over Newcastle.
After the game, Marcus Rashford sung his praises to MUTV, and expects Shoretire to 'show his quality' for the club in the future.
'He's even younger than I was,' said Rashford. 'It's a top moment when a young player makes his debut, they kick on from that, and hopefully we see the same from him.'
Shoretire, who grew up in the North East and followed in the footsteps of Alan Shearer and Peter Beardsley by playing for Wallsend Boys Club, actually names Rashford as one of his role models.
