Manchester United teenager Shea Lacey has committed his future to the club following serious transfer interest from elsewhere.

The 16-year-old is a highly rated talent in United's academy, and hopes are high for him to have a successful career in the professional game.

Lacey has signed a scholarship deal at the club, with an agreement in principle to sign professional terms when he turns 17 next April.

While there is still a lot of work to be done before Lacey can make it into the first team, his talents are widely recognised, with many top sides in Europe keeping tabs on his development.
