Manchester United youngster Marc Jurado has made good progress since joining the club's youth ranks in 2020 - earning a call-up to the first team squad with a place on the bench against Nottingham Forest in April.
Jurado, 19, made the first-team matchday squad for the first time in his career as a reward for his consistent academy performances.
The right-back joined United in 2020 on a free transfer from Barcelona and is highly regarded in the youth set-up. The youngster, who was born Sabadell, Spain, began his career with Can Rull before making the switch to Barcelona's famous La Masia academy, where he spent nine years before allowing his contract with the Catalan club to run out.

Jurado made 25 appearances for the U21s last season and he's an important player for manager Mark Dempsey. He captained the U21 team in a friendly against Barcelona in February and he possesses all of the attacking qualities of a modern full-back.
