United have done well to promote and develop young players throughout their history, with many of their best players coming up from their academy.
Meanwhile, in more recent times, they’ve also had success with someone like Alejandro Garnacho, who arrived from Spain at a young age and who is now a key player for Erik ten Hag’s first-team.

Most fans might not know a huge amount about Canales at this point, but it seems MUFC have decided he’s worth keeping track of in the months to come, so it will be interesting to see if this ends up turning into anything more concrete.
Peio Canales to Manchester United?
United had a busy summer bringing in a number of exciting young players, most notably Leny Yoro and Joshua Zirkzee, while others like Manuel Ugarte and Matthijs de Ligt are also young enough to be long-term options, even if they also provide experience from their previous stints at other top European clubs.
The club have made some mistakes in the transfer market in recent years, signing some big names without much re-sale value like Alexis Sanchez, Raphael Varane and Casemiro, so fans will surely be pleased to see this switch to an emphasis on bringing in players whose peak years are yet to come.
