Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Axel Tuanzebe has impressed him in preseason training.

After last season's loan with Aston Villa, Solskjaer insists the 21-year-old has a great chance to play at United and the manager believes Tuanzebe has already proven he has what it takes to compete at the level required to succeed at Old Trafford.

"He has a great chance of staying here and playing," Solskjaer said.

"Had a great season last year, stop start season but he's really proven he can play that level and he's come back strong, focused, did well in the first game here and he's one of the exciting players I can't wait to see more."

Tuanzebe is in line to get a chance on Wednesday night when United take on Leeds in their second match of the Perth tour.

The manager added: "The more you play against each other the more the rivalry will flare up again and you want games against the biggest clubs and if we see Leeds back in the Premier League, you'll see the size of the game.

"It's a great occasion for both sets of supporters because there were some fantastic games."
