Idris Kanu scored twice for Manchester United U18s today in their win over Middlesborough with the forward seemingly on trial at the moment.

Kanu, 16, played 63 minutes and has not officially signed his scholarship at West Ham yet and the Manchester club could may well make a move for him a fter his two goal performance today.

He is well known for coming on in the last 10 minutes of an U18s game against Liverpool with West Ham losing 2-1, scoring twice to give West Ham a 3-2 win whilst still an U15 – the feat made even more impressive considering minutes before he scored in the U16s game on the pitch next to the U18s.

He started regularly for the U18s in 2015/16 whilst an U16 and scored a stunning goal against Chelsea early on in the season and scored a penalty on his U21 debut in the closing minutes to win the game.
