The youth academy at Manchester United is one of the most impressive in the world, and it's no surprise that young players from this program have gone on to make significant contributions to the first team. One such player is 17-year-old midfielder, Donny van de Beek.

Van de Beek has been a key part of the Utd's youth academy since he was just six years old, and his talent has only continued to grow over time. He has already made several appearances for the club's reserve team, and he looks set to continue making an impact in the future.

In an interview with ESPN FC, Van de Beek spoke about his experiences at Manchester United's youth academy and how it has helped him develop into the player he is today. "It's been amazing," he said. "I've learned so much from my coaches and I've also had the opportunity to play against some of the best players in the world."

One thing that sets Manchester United's youth academy apart is its focus on developing young players' technical skills. Van de Beek said that he was taught everything he knows about football from a young age, and that he still receives regular training and guidance from his coaches to this day.

Despite his success at Manchester United's youth academy, Van de Beek is not content to rest on his laurels. He is determined to continue improving his game and making a big impact in the first team.

As he prepares for the upcoming season, Van de Beek is excited to see what he can achieve with Manchester United. "I'm looking forward to playing more games and helping the team win matches," he said. "I want to be a part of something special here at Manchester United."
