Anthony Elanga: Manchester United striker's emergence a high point in a tough season

Amid Manchester United's troubled campaign, Anthony Elanga's emergence has been an undoubted high point.

The young striker may not start Wednesday's first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie with Atletico Madrid, but if Ralf Rangnick needs to make changes, the 19-year-old forward is bound to be high on the list of options he will turn to.

Elanga scored his second goal in nine Premier League appearances during Sunday's 4-2 win at Leeds. Including his debut effort at Wolves in the final game of last season, an overall top-flight return of three from 11 games is not bad given he has only completed the full 90 minutes twice.
