And now, Forson will need to step up to the plate as he hopes to impress on his Old Trafford debut.

But who exactly is he?

Who is Omari Forson?

Born on July 20, 2004, the United wonderkid graduated through the Red Devils ranks but started his career at Tottenham.

Forson is an attacking midfielder who has also represented England at youth level.

But Erik ten Hag will trust the youngster to go up top in replace of Rasmus Hojlund who has sustained a muscle injury.

Has Omari Forson played in the Premier League before?

Forson was handed his Premier League debut in a 4-3 away win against Wolves earlier this season.

The youngster came on as a second-half substitute and fans were not shy to give him a lot of praise.

He has also made two appearances off the bench in the FA Cup this campaign.

However, the wonderkid is out of contract at Old Trafford this summer so he’ll be eager to prove his worth.
