Danny Welbeck

A promising young striker who plays for Manchester United.

A tall and gracefully athletic forward with great pace and the ability to play on the wing, he also possesses excellent technique and an easy on the eye playing style.

Part of the Red Devils side that reached the final of the 2007 FA Youth Cup while still a schoolboy, Danny signed scholarship forms that summer and found himself on the bench for the Champions League semi-final against Barcelona in May 2008.

While he didn’t make it onto the field that day, he made his full debut in September 2008 at the age of 17 and followed that up with a stunning 30-yard strike on his maiden Premier League appearance.

The Manchester-born front man has scored further goals in both domestic cups and really made his breakthrough on loan at Sunderland in 2010-11, earning a first England cap and developing his game and his confidence ahead of a return to his parent club.

Last season saw Danny firmly establish himself as part of the first team squad at Old Trafford and force himself into the England team on a regular basis, resulting in him playing in all of the Three Lions’ fixtures at Euro 2012.
