Solskjaer excited about Man Utd youngster Elanga: Future is bright for him
Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says the 'future is bright' for Anthony Elanga.
The 19-year-old scored his first senior goal for United in the 2-1 win over Wolves on Sunday.
"He could have scored once or twice before but to keep getting in there, keep making the runs, keep being positive," Solskjaer said of Elanga.
"He's got such an enthusiasm and energy for football and a desire that I love. He deserved it. What you maybe don't see is his attitude, desire, a personality.
"He's a very humble lad, works really hard, he's got some attributes that you could wish for as a player. As you said, that pace, directness, he's right-footed but equally good on his left.
"I've not really seen him score headers like this, so that was a big bonus as well. The future's bright for him I think and I know and trust him to keep his feet on the ground and make the most of his talent."
