Striker Gabriele Biancheri opened the deadlock around the half-hour mark and doubled his goal tally in the second half to put United ahead 3-0.

The 18-year-old has been in stunning form this season, bagging 11 goals in eight games across all competitions.

His two goals against Zalgiris marked the fourth occasion this season when he has scored a brace in a match.

He has shown impressive movement inside the penalty area to outmanoeuvre his markers.

His clinical finishing is a refreshing quality that has been lacking in United’s first team for some time now.

Biancheri’s rich goal tally not only showcases his talent but also his knack for delivering consistently.

United have a rich history of discovering future superstars, and it looks like another talented prospect is emerging.

The rising star has represented Wales at various youth levels. However, thanks to his heritage, he can also play for Italy.

Biancheri should focus on racking up goals and developing his overall game.

Erik ten Hag has shown faith in youth by giving Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo regular opportunities in the first team.

However, he has been adamant that an opportunity at the highest level must be earned and not gifted.

The United academy stars are often included in the first team’s training. Biancheri must capitalise on the opportunity when it arises.

The talented forward was signed from Cardiff City in February 2023. In a short time, he has earned plaudits at youth level.

The Welsh starlet currently seems unstoppable and Ten Hag will be keeping a close eye on his progress.
