Manchester United Striker Anthony Martial Wins Golden Boy Award
Manchester United forward Anthony Martial has won the 2015 Golden Boy award that recognises the best young player in Europe, seeing off Kingsley Coman and Hector Bellerin for the award.
Launched by Italian sports newspaper Tuttosport in 2003, the Golden Boy is restricted to players under the age of 21, and is voted for by writers from 30 newspapers across the continent.
The 20-year-old became the most expensive teenager in football history when he secured a September deadline-day move to United from Monaco.
He has scored six times in 19 appearances to date for Louis van Gaal’s team, while also making the breakthrough to earn full international honours with France this season.
