Shola Shoretire makes senior United debut

The youngster, who celebrated his 17th birthday earlier this month, came on in the final few minutes of the Premier League encounter, when he replaced Marcus Rashford.

At 17 years and 19 days, Shoretire is the second-youngest player to represent the Reds in the Premier League, with only Angel Gomes doing so at a younger age.

Our no.74 impressed with the few touches he had after coming on against the Magpies – a club he previously represented at a young age.

Shoretire was included among our substitutes during Thursday's 4-0 win over Real Sociedad in the Europa League, and becomes the second player this week to make his first-team debut, following Amad's introduction in Italy.
