Jose gives message to Academy prospects

Jose Mourinho has delivered a message to Manchester United's Academy players by stressing they should use Scott McTominay as a role model.

In an exclusive interview with MUTV at the annual awards dinner on Tuesday night, the boss spoke about the teenagers at the club, who were on stage to mark their Under-18 north title success, and said there is always a hope they can eventually make the breakthrough into the first team.

McTominay was selected as the manager's Player of the Year and has become a regular part of the senior squad at his boyhood club, following in the footsteps of Jesse Lingard and Marcus Rashford.
