Teenage striker Mason Greenwood gave Manchester United fans a tantalising glimpse of the future on the day Romelu Lukaku attracted fresh interest from Inter Milan.Greenwood, 17, capped an impressive United performance by bending a left-footed winner past Inter keeper Samir Handanovic, rated one of the best in the world, to seal a 1-0 victory.He then nearly grabbed a second with an instinctive volley that cannoned against the crossbar. Mason Greenwood gave Manchester United fans a tantalising glimpse of the future Greenwood has been highly regarded in United circles for years but after a virtuoso display in the high humidity of Singapore, the secret is out of the bag now.Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said: 'The kid is 17 and learning every day training with these boys. When you have players who perform, it is difficult to keep them out.'It has never been in my mind to send him out on loan. He is one that we have to keep at our place and keep him playing when we feel it's good for him. He reminds me a little bit about the Giggsy story.
