Dutch youngster of Ghanaian descent Timothy Fosu-Mensah has been named 28th in a top 50 list taking a look at the world's best youngsters by English football website Teamtalk.

The 16-year-old Dutch defender joined Manchester United from Ajax in the summer but only made his debut few days ago in the 2-0 defeat to Everton.

Fosu-Mensah also captained Holland's Under-17s to an undefeated European Championships qualifying campaign. He has been compared to the likes of Paolo Maldini, Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic.

Groomed in the famous Ajax Academy, pundits have argued that Fosu-Mensah will have a natural ball playing ability and Carrington will be the perfect place for him to hopefully fulfil his potential under the watchful eye of Louis van Gaal.
