United committed to raising homegrown talent

CHIEF executive David Gill does not believe Manchester United will ever win a trophy without a smattering of homegrown talent being involved.

Despite being one of the world’s richest and most successful clubs, United have always retained an impressive commitment to youth development.

Matt Busby began the tradition of the Red Devils nurturing their own with his cherished “Babes” and Alex Ferguson willingly carried it on, first through his “Fledglings”, then the famed “Class of 92”, which spawned Ryan Giggs, David Beckham, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Nicky Butt, Robbie Savage and Keith Gillespie.
