Tom Cleverley is a versatile midfielder who has progressed through the ranks at Old Trafford.
The teenager can play in defence as well as across the middle and proved a real asset to the Reserves during the 2007/08 season after graduating from the Under-18s.
The Basingstoke-born midfielder was a regular for the Reds' second-string last term, and his impressive displays earned him plaudits from coaches Brian McClair and Jim Ryan. Although not
a regular goalscorer, Tom did bag a fine brace in the Reserves' victory at Bolton in January 2008. His professionalism and a string of fine
displays saw him temporarily named Reserves captain in the absence of injured skipper Sam Hewson.
In recognition of his achievements, Cleverley was one of three players nominated for the prestigious Denzil Haroun Reserve Player of the Year award, alongside fellow midfielder Hewson and
defender Richard Eckersley.
Following a late call-up to join the squad in South Africa during the 2008 pre-season campaign, Cleverley marked his non-competitive debut with a goal as United claimed victory in the Vodacom
Challenge final. Just a few weeks later, he was handed the No.35 shirt in the senior squad.
