Manchester United promote five starlets, including 16-year-old striker Shola Shoretire, to first-team squad ahead of Premier League clash with Wolves

Manchester United have added five of their most promising youth team players to their first-team squad ahead of the Premier League visit of Wolves on Tuesday.

Shola Shoretire, Facundo Pellistri, Ethan Laird, Anthony Elanga and Will Fish were all seen training with the senior squad on Sunday, according to the Manchester Evening News.

Striker Shoretire is the youngest of the newcomers at just 16, having been repeatedly tipped as one of the best up-and-coming prospects at the club during his appearances for the under-23s.
