Scouting Eye-Catching Manchester United Youngster Indy Boonen

Indy Boonen is a 17-year old Belgian forward plying his trade in Manchester United's impressive under-18 side. In seven starts and two substitute appearances so far this season he has scored five goals and provided three assists—just under one direct contribution to a goal every game.

When he signed for the club in early 2015 he said, per Het Laatste Nieuws (h/t Sky Sports), "It's like in a dream. Of course I will miss my friends but if you want to achieve something then you have to make sacrifices. The training sessions are hard, but I don't feel the tiredness when I realise I have signed for Manchester United.
