After another strong season for Sheffield Wednesday and Carlos Carvalhal, the South Yorkshire side looks well positioned to gain promotion via the play-offs.

One of the reasons for Sheffield Wednesday's ability to replicate the success that they had last season is the high-quality recruitment, which has seen the squad continue to strengthen in both depth and quality.

However, one avenue of recruitment that Sheffield Wednesday has yet to turn to is Premier League loans, some of the standout performers in the Championship this season have been Premier League loanees.

With Jose Mourinho likely to loan out some of his young stars for a taste of senior football, Championship clubs including Sheffield Wednesday could potentially be a beneficiary.

The relationship between Jose Mourinho and Carlos Carvalhal could see Sheffield Wednesday having the edge on the other Championship sides for a potential Manchester United youngster.

FLW writer Elliott Wheat-Bowen looks at TWO Manchester United youngsters that Sheffield Wednesday needs to send scouts to watch urgently....

 

Axel Tuanzebe

One of the most highly rated defenders in Manchester United's academy is Axel Tuanzebe, after joining Manchester United at the age of eight, Tuanzebe has steadily progressed through Manchester United's academy system.

During the 2014/15 season, Axel Tuanzebe won the prestigious Jimmy Murphy Young player of the year award for his performances for Manchester United's youth side.

Having already captained both Manchester United's Under-18 and Under-21, Tuanzebe is a regarded as a natural leader and a future first team star.

Manchester United may feel that a loan spell in the Championship could offer him an opportunity of regular first team football which he has yet to experience at senior level.

The athletic and robust central defender has all the attributes to thrive in the Championship, he is a Manchester United youngster that Sheffield Wednesday needs to send scouts to watch urgently.

Andreas Pereira

After joining Manchester United from PSV Eindhoven, Andreas Pereira has shown that he is one of the most talented, and creative players to come out of Manchester United's academy in recent years.

Already, Pereira has made a number of first team appearances for Manchester United showing that he is more than capable of performing at the Premier League level.

However, with extremely strong competition for his position, Jose Mourinho has elected to allow the 21-year-old midfielder to continue his development on loan at La Liga side Granada.

With the situation likely to be similar next season, it is expected that Andreas Pereira will be allowed to leave Old Trafford on loan once again.

Considering the Portuguese influence at Sheffield Wednesday, Andreas Pereira is a Manchester United youngster that Sheffield Wednesday need to send scouts to watch urgently.
