Manchester United already have their own Jude Bellingham in the current squad, according to a former Red Devils star.
Louis Saha believes young midfielder Kobbie Mainoo could go on to the club's very own Bellingham in the future.
The 18-year-old has enjoyed a breakout campaign with the Red Devils and has scored some important goals.

Bellingham was a target for United when he was still at Birmingham City a few years ago, but Saha feels Mainoo could have the same impact for United.
"Kobbie Mainoo can be Manchester United's Jude Bellingham!," the former United striker told Paddy Power.
"He's got the skills, the composure. He's one of those players who has grown quicker than normal and he's showing real maturity at 18, especially considering he's playing in an unstable squad."
" Manchester United ’s form is all over the place and we saw it against Chelsea and against Liverpool.
"Having a player like Mainoo who can surprise the opposition with his calmness and out of nowhere, he’s able to produce some magic, so he has no ceiling."
Mainoo has already earned a call-up to the national, having made his senior debut in the 2-2 draw against Belgium earlier this month.
