It’s an early Christmas present for Anthony Martial.
The France international has not enjoyed the most productive spell for Manchester United in recent weeks after exploding into the Premier League at the start of the campaign.
The former Monaco forward has been one of a number of players who have struggled under Louis van Gaal recently, but he’s been given a boost after  being named the best young player under the age of 21 in Europe.
The initial list featured several other players from Old Trafford including Adnan Januzaj and  Luke Shaw, but it’s the young Frenchman that has picked up the award for 2015.

Only three Manchester United players have ever won the award, with Wayne Rooney picking up the gong in 2004 and Anderson, yes, that Anderson, winning it in 2008.

Let’s hope Martial does slightly better than the midfielder.
