Manchester United are reportedly lining up moves for two promising teenagers as the club focus on bringing in younger talent.

New minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe is reportedly keen on focusing the club’s recruitment towards younger talent in a bid to shake things up at Old Trafford.

The Mail Online reports that United are close to agreeing deals for two rising stars.

The 14-year-old Championship wonderkid Silva Mexes is close to agreeing a move from Ipswich to Manchester United.

Another target that is rumoured to be close to joining United is the 15-year-old Wolves right-back Wesley Okoduwa.

Okoduwa has represented England at U16 level and has been on the bench for Wolves in the Premier League.
