Manchester United’s far reaching scouting network has reaped further dividends in Mozambique.
Assistant manger Carlos Queiroz has used the international break to look at young talent across the globe and after a trip to Mozambique has decided to bring Daude Massude back to the club’s academy.
The 15-year-old, believed to be an attacking midfielder, caught the eye whilst playing in Portugal - where he was connected to Benfica.
Massude, delighted to be handed an opportunity to play in England, has spoken with warmth about Queiroz, who was also born in Mozambique.
‘’I am to carry out part of my dream,'’ said Massude. ‘’It is a chance I cannot waste.
‘’Looking ahead I’ll be alone but it is important not to disappoint the expectations of the person that believed in my potential and that is the coach Carlos Queiroz.'’
