'Real handful' - Ex-Manchester United player earning rave reviews at new club after transfer

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

New Bolton Wanderers B team attacker Connor Stanley proved a 'real handful' against Bamber Bridge in the club's pre-season friendly and the former Manchester United youngster has impressed with his technical ability.

That's the verdict of Wanderers B team boss Matt Craddock. Stanley made the move to the League One side's new B team over the summer from United.

The 20-year-old joined United from Birmingham City in the summer of 2018 and spent four years at Old Trafford, turning out for the club's under-18 and under-23 outfit.
