Manchester United’s treble-winning striker Andy Cole believes Chidou Obi has a chance to shine after impressing against Fulham.

The 17-year-old was substituted in the 68th minute and replaced Rasmus Hojlund just minutes before Bruno Fernandes equalised.

Obi ultimately failed to help the Red Devils reach the next round of the competition as the game ended 1-1 in normal time, with Fulham winning on penalties.

Despite the upset, Obi has received positive reviews from fans on social media. Who have been impressed by the youngster’s abilities.

‘My nephew worked with him and my nephew said: ‘Yeah man, he’s got a chance’.”

Cole was speaking on Rio Ferdinand’s Presents podcast with the host also backing the young Dane to make an impact at Old Trafford. His striking instincts have also impressed the former centre-back.

“He’s still rough around the edges and he should be. But what I don’t have any fear about is that he will get chances. He’s not in the game but the ball falls and he’s there,” Ferdinand said.

Former United striker Cole has also spoken about the young striker’s performances.
