Aston Villa Carrasco can be Villa’s own Sancho

FB Ref suggests that the Manchester United man is the second-most similar winger to Carrasco, with both excelling at progressive carries, dribbling and touches in the attacking penalty area.

Although the England international struggled on his debut season at Old Trafford, contributing just three goals and three assists in the Premier League, he has undoubted talent and his previous form at Borussia Dortmund emphasises that he is a top-quality player.

In 137 games for the Bundesliga side, the youngster contributed a hugely impressive 50 goals and 67 assists, and it seems like when he finds his feet at United, Erik ten Hag will have a top young talent at his disposal.
