Manchester United's youth academy is full of exciting young talents who are desperate to be part of the first team squad at Old Trafford.

Players like Tahith Chong, Scott McTominay and Angel Gomes have all been in and around the United first team squad this season.

Arguably, their best current prospect is young forward Mason Greenwood, who has been in sensational form for the Under-23s side.

The 17-year-old has scored 22 goals in 21 games for the United youth teams in all competitions so far this season, in what is a phenomenal record for someone who doesn't turn 18 until October.

There is a lot of hype around the youngster, and quite rightly, as he possesses all the attributes to become a top player in years to come.

EA SPORTS have also taken notice of Greenwood's talent, they only added him to FIFA 19 in December but they've now given him his first major upgrade on the game.

Here's the summary of changes to Mason Greenwood's Manchester United profile on FIFA 19 as of February 14 2019.

Mason Greenwood - Upgrade

The young English forward has been given a major upgrade in FIFA 19's latest ratings update.

His curve (58-60), dribbling (63-64), FK accuracy (51-57) and interceptions (28-34) have all been boosted.

His overall rating has also been upgraded from 65 to 66, which is very good for a player of his age.

The forward's potential has also gone up from 85 to 86, which is mightily impressive, as this means he could become better than players like Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Alexis Sanchez and as good as Romelu Lukaku.

The United youngster's best attributes are his acceleration (78), sprint speed (76), agility (73), stamina (69), finishing (67) and balance (67).

He also possesses the Beat Offside Trap, Flair, Speed Dribbler, Outside Foot Shot and Technical Dribbler traits.

And, in what is almost unheard of for a youth player, Greenwood has got five-star weak foot rating, which means he is as good with his right foot as he is with his left.

This lad is some talent - and FIFA 19 agrees.
