Forgotten Man Utd wonderkid trains with first-team for Fulham finale as fans beg Erik ten Hag to ‘give him some minutes’
MANCHESTER UNITED fans are desperate for wonderkid Zidane Iqbal to be given a chance to shine against Fulham.
Iqbal, 20, was handed his United debut by Ralf Rangnick last season but he is yet to feature under Erik ten Hag.
He did play in a friendly in December and impressed after he won a penalty in the 4-2 defeat to Cadiz.
Fans spotted Iqbal in training on Friday and they are hopeful he will be given a chance to show what he can do when Fulham visit Old Trafford on Sunday.
The Red Devils secured Champions League qualification with a win over Chelsea on Thursday.
But they are still fighting for third place and Ten Hag may stick with his trusted first eleven as United look to continue their momentum ahead of the FA Cup final next week.
However fans still believe Iqbal should be given a chance, having also been impressed with his performances for Iraq.
One supporter said: “Amazing player. Feels great to see plenty of fans who want him to make his Premier League debut since the first day of the season. It’s been a long wait but we all hope he does get his chance.”
Another added: “It’s his time to shine tomorrow. It must be the time to show Ten Hag what he’s made of.”
A third wrote: “Zidane Iqbal deserve some minutes tomorrow.”
