Manchester United have reportedly taken West Ham United youngster Idris Kanu on trial.
The 16-year-old scored twice on Saturday as Man United's Under-18 side recorded a 5-1 win over Middlesbrough at the club's Carrington training complex.
According to Manchester Evening News, the attacker's performance caught the attention of academy chief Nicky Butt and Kanu will now stay with Man United as the Red Devils run the rule over the teenager.
Kanu scored twice in 17 appearances for West Ham's academy team during the 2015-16 campaign.
