Anthony Elanga has been handed his first senior international call-up after being named in Sweden’s squad for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
The 19-year-old has been one of the few highlights for Manchester United in an otherwise disappointing season. The academy graduate has impressed in recent weeks, becoming one of the regulars in Ralf Rangnick’s side.
Elanga came closest to scoring for United in their defeat to Atletico Madrid at Old Trafford on Tuesday as they went out of the Champions League. The young forward had ensured United went into the second leg on level terms after equalising late on in Spain three weeks ago.
