Birmingham City striker Troy Deeney has praised the mindset that has been ingrained in young players at Manchester United ever since the days of legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson.
Two United youngsters made their way to St. Andrews over the summer, Hannibal Mejbri joining for a second season-long loan while Tahith Chong signed a four-year permanent deal for around £1.5million, following his initial loan during the 2021/2022 campaign.
The pair have become part of a project in the Midlands that is championing youth, and play alongside the Jobe Bellingham, the brother of England international Jude. Deeney, now 34 years old, is one of the more experienced heads in the squad and is valued by the younger players, and the former Watford frontman has praised the mindset of United's loanees.
