Danny Welbeck is a highly talented, skilful player who can play out wide or up front.
He has been likened by Sir Alex Ferguson to former Arsenal forward Nwankwo Kanu for his manner of play.
“He’s got a smooth and languid style,” says Paul McGuinness, his coach at Under-18 level. “But don’t let that fool you, it sometimes disguises the fact that he is a really hard
worker.
“Danny is a very talented and skilful player with good all-round technique. He’s strong, quick, good defensively as well as going forward, and he’s a real leader, too. He is a good
personality
to have around the dressing room.”
Welbeck played a prominent role in the Under-18s’ run to the FA Youth Cup final in 2006/07 when he was a schoolboy.
He’s also represented England at youth level and was called into the national team’s Under-17s squad to take part in the World Championships in Korea in summer 2007.
