Man Utd include 16-year old-talent in Premier League squad for Arsenal showdown

One of the players who most impressed Ruben Amorim since his arrival at Manchester United almost a month ago was an exciting 16-year-old defender who caught the eye in the Portuguese coach's first training session to such an extent that he was promoted to the first-team sessions. 

Indeed, Godwill Kukonki travelled with the squad to Portmand Road for Amroim's first game in charge of the Red Devils, although the Mancunian academy youngster was not named on the bench. 

However, the promising defender will be named in the Manchester United squad for the first time for the visit of Arsenal in what will be Amorim's first major test since taking the reins at the club, the ‘Manchester Evening News’ has reported.

Additionally noteworthy is the presence in the squad of Leny Yoro, who after suffering a nasty injury in pre-season, could make his Red Devils debut against the Gunners if Amorim gives him game time.
