Nigeria-eligible youngster Shola Shoretire is in contention to be included in the gameday squad when Manchester United take on AC Milan in a Europa League round-of-16 first leg tie at Old Trafford on Thursday, March 11.

The teenage winger was spotted training with the first team of the Red Devils in their final workout at the Aon Training Complex on Wednesday.

Shoretire stands a good chance of being included in the Manchester United squad to face the Italian giants as manager
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is sweating over the fitness of attack-minded trio Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial and Edinson Cavani.

Things will become clearer if the Anglo-Nigerian starlet is omitted from the FA Youth Cup squad against Salford on Wednesday evening.

He cemented his place in Manchester United U23 as a 16-year-old before he was promoted to the first team bubble last month shortly after turning 17.

In 14 matches in the Premier League 2 this season, Shoretire scored 6 goals and he showed his creativity by providing four assists.
