Charlie Savage has expressed his delight in making his senior Manchester United debut, thanking the club's academy staff and new boss Ralf Rangnick for helping him make it to the big stage.
Savage, son of former Derby County and Wales captain Robbie Savage, was handed his debut by Rangnick during United's 1-1 draw with Young Boys in the Champions League on Wednesday.
The youngster, who signed his first professional deal back in April, replaced club veteran Juan Mata as Rangnick looked to cast his eye over a handful of academy players during the dead rubber match.
