Darren Fletcher has praised the “amazing talent” coming through Manchester United’s academy after Shea Lacey caught the eye with an impressive cameo appearance.
The former United midfielder, now working at the club, pointed to the quality in the youth set-up and highlighted Lacey’s impact as another sign of what is being developed at Carrington.
Fletcher’s comments came in stark contrast to recent remarks from Ruben Amorim, who had been dismissive about the level of United’s young players.
Lacey’s showing offered a timely reminder of the promise inside the academy, and Fletcher made clear he believes the pathway remains strong for those ready to take their chance at senior level.
