Manchester United have given a trial to former Borussia Dortmund winger Reda Khadra, but fans have been left wondering who the youngster is and what he can offer the club.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is giving the youngster a chance to prove himself as he continues to rebuild his Red Devils group this summer after finishing third in the Premier League last season.

Here, Sportsmail gives the lowdown on midfielder Khadra and what he could bring to Old Trafford should he earn a full time deal.

Who is Red Khadra?

Khadra is the 19-year-old German footballer who has been on the tip of every United fans tongues.

The youngster could burst onto the scene in the English top-flight next season after leaving his former club Borussia Dortmund earlier this summer.

Renowned for their ability to develop young players, Manchester United will giving Khadra the chance to prove himself to Solskjaer by playing for their U23’s.

Khadra was due to pull on the Red Devils kit for the first time in a friendly against Doncaster this week, but was forced to watch from the sidelines as his international clearance failed to come through in time.

Having witnessed United's U23s lose 5-0 at Doncaster's Keepmoat Stadium, Khadra will be eager to prove his worth and his hit the ground running in his first appearance for the club.

As for now, the 19-year-old will look to tear it up in training as he waits for United’s youngsters to face Salford City next in the EFL Trophy on Tuesday before being handed his debut.

Where does he play?

Coincidentally, Khadra plays in the same position as £108-million-rated United target Jadon Sancho.

Khadra is a right winger at heart but versatility allows him to perform as a left winger or attacking midfielder.

The 19-year-old has frequently adopted the number seven shirt for Germany U18’s after being handed his debut in 2018.

As it stands, the Red Devils have not handed out the infamous number seven shirt - which has been worn by the likes of David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Since Ronaldo left Manchester United for Real Madrid in 2009, five players have worn the number seven jersey, only for all of them to flop at Old Trafford.

The German winger will be hoping to get his hands on the shirt in the future and add the history of number at Old Trafford.

He played 69 youth team matches for Dortmund in total, scoring two goals and providing 11 assists and scored in a UEFA Youth League clash against Derby County earlier this year.

Khadra is no stranger to competitive fixtures having won both the U17-Bundesliga West and the U19-Bundesliga West, as well as competing in the Regionalliga West, UEFA Youth League and DFB-Pokal der Junioren.

Khadra played a total of 11 times – clocking up 407 minutes - under the tutelage of Sebastian Geppert to claim the U17-Bundesliga title.

The youngster went on to establish himself one of Mike Tullberg’s mainstays in Dortmund’s U19 title win, playing 39 times and scoring six goals.

After setting the youth system alight, Khadra tried his chance in the major leagues by training with Stoke City.
