Danny Loader is one of the EFL's hottest prospects having come through the Reading academy, and the 19-year-old is highly rated by the Royals despite his contract running out next summer.

The forward is now being monitored by a host of Premier League clubs, including English giants Manchester United who are looking for striker reinforcements following the departure of Romelu Lukaku in the summer to Inter Milan.

Loader moving to Manchester United at this stage of his career would be perfect for the young striker, as it would mean that he has the chance of developing under better and more high-profile coaches at the top flight side as well as having better facilities available to him.

Loader is just the type of player who can bring some competition to the Manchester United side and really put pressure on the likes of Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford.

The 19-year-old has the ability to rise up the football pyramid and it is clear to see just why Wolverhampton Wanderers tried to bring the youngster to Molineux in the summer but to no avail, and Old Trafford could be the perfect place for Loader to unlock his true potential.

Manchester United helped create global stars like Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney and David Beckham who all rose to prominence in the city, with Loader hoping for the same if he was to secure a move to Old Trafford.

The forward has bags of pace to burn, is creative and can be used in a variety of positions, something which United will be more than happy to work with if it means getting the best out of the 19-year-old and making him the best player that he could be.

While a step up to the Premier League would be a big one for the youngster to make at his age and with his status within the game at the moment, he will take positives from Dan James' move from Swansea to Old Trafford this summer and hope that he can replicate the Welshman's success.

Man Utd can develop Loader into their player and model him into the style of player that they want him to be so that he would fit their system further on along the line, and Loader has the attributes to really be of value to them in the future.

Whatever happens now though, Loader has a decision to make about his future.
