Shola Shoretire names two key lessons Manchester United's academy has taught him

Shola Shoretire has named 'mentality' and 'work rate' as the two key qualities Manchester United's academy has taught him.

Shoretire was named United's Jimmy Murphy Young Player of the Year last season and he's among the club's brightest youth prospects. Shoretire has contributed six goals and seven assists in 20 appearances in the Premier League 2 this term.

The 18-year-old has played in wide attacking positions during his time at United, but U23 manager Neil Wood has recently played him in a deeper central midfield role. Shoretire played in that position in games against Leicester and Chelsea this month.
