Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood is “one of the best finishers” he has seen.
Greenwood is yet to start a game this season, but Solskjaer confirmed the 17-year-old will have an important role to play against Astana as United open their Europa League campaign at Old Trafford on Thursday.
Asked what advice he would give the teenager, the United boss said: “He’s still very young but he’s maturing and he’s developed so much since I came in.

“His appetite for football is growing. I don’t want to put too much pressure on him apart from go out there, enjoy yourself and work hard.
“When you’ve got strikers who can score goals, you should never lose the hunger of scoring goals. Never lose the appetite of creating chances and be ready to take yours.
“Mason is one of the best finishers I’ve seen and I’ve played with quite a few decent ones.”
