Since INEOS took over at Manchester United, the club has made a clear effort to bring exciting young talents to Old Trafford.
The United decision-makers are building not only for the present by signing experienced stars, but also for the future, snapping up exciting youngsters along the way.
Diego Leon , Sekou Kone , Ayden Heaven , Chido Obi and Christian Orozco are just some of the youngsters already through the door.
So this summer, alongside experienced signings such as Ederson , Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali , further young talent could well be on the way.
Interestingly, according to ElDesmarque , Real Betis academy talent Jean-Emmanuel N’Goran could be the latest prodigy the Red Devils pursue.
N’Goran is a left-footed, 19-year-old Ivorian centre-back who has caught the eye with his excellent ball-playing ability, imposing physical presence and a knack for coming out on top in duels.
He was fantastic in the UEFA Youth League and played a key role as Betis’ junior side, Betis Deportivo, won the Copa del Rey Juvenil.
INEOS appear to have been impressed by what they have seen from him so far, as ElDesmarque writes:
