Latest under our scout's gaze is Manchester United's Ben Amos.

The scout reports...

We are back on the goalkeepers this week and we look at Ben Amos, who is the latest young Englishman to impress.

Amos has been with United since the age of 11, but they were not his first club having spent time with Crewe's Academy prior to that - but he was released just a year before sealing a deal with the Red Devils.

He has emerged through the system and in 2008 he was making his first-team debut for United, in a League Cup clash against Middlesbrough.

The following year he was sent on loan for the first time, having spells with Peterborough and Norwegian side Molde.

Amos returned to United, but remained on the fringes of the first-team and following Anders Lindegaard's arrival 2011 he was loaned to Oldham for half the season - where he was first choice and made a big impression.

2012 saw him make his league debut for United, as well as three further appearances in the League Cup as he continued to impress Sir Alex Ferguson and his coaching staff.

Amos's form did not go unnoticed and he was snapped up by Hull City at the start of the season, and became first choice under Steve Bruce.

However, after 19 matches and playing a major role in Hull's bid for the top-flight - United were forced to recall Amos after an injury to Lindegaard.

Amos is now back as third choice at Old Trafford - but clearly there is more to this young keeper than sitting on the bench. Having proven himself at the top of the Championship, he could perhaps be one of the first keepers to make the breakthrough under Sir Alex Ferguson.

The scout says...

Recognised by England at every level from Under-16 to Under-21, Amos is rated highly by a number of people.

His performances for Hull have highlighted what level he is already at, unfortunately for him it looks increasingly likely he may have to leave United to maintain his aim of Premier League football.
