New Fenerbahce coach Jose Mourinho previously picked out five Manchester United academy players that he felt were destined for success during his stint at Old Trafford
Jose Mourinho once tipped five Manchester United academy prospects for greatness as he believed they were destined to shine in football.
Back in the summer of 2017, while still holding the reins at Old Trafford, Mourinho defended his record of giving academy players a platform to succeed and also tipped five current players to achieve greatness at the club. Fast forward to 2024 and McTominay is still performing well at the club, scoring 10 goals and assisting three times in the 2023/24 season. He has appeared 289 times for United, scoring 29 times over eight seasons with the club.
Mitchell was signed by League One promotion hopefuls Blackpool, and played 25 matches under ex-Liverpool youth-team manager Neil Critchley. The now-28-year-old signed for United from Dutch side PSV Eindhoven in 2014 and was introduced to the first team squad in a fairly quick fashion. However, he was then sent out on a multitude of loans that included La Liga clubs Granada and Valencia, as well as Italian outfit Lazio and Brazilian club Flamengo.
The centre-back has been loaned to Aston Villa a total of three times and has also spent time at Napoli and Stoke City.
