Indy Boonen was one of the highlights in United's academy last week but has been known as a big talent for quite some time. Voetbalkrant.com spoke to the young attacker about his ambitious plans for the future.

Because the young Limburger definitely has ambition. "I hope to make my debut next season in the first team. Preferably in the Premier League of course, but a game in the League Cup would be great aswell".

"I have faith in it".At United everyone knows him aswell. "At United every coach knows everything about you. They're very well connected with each other and pass on feedback. They work very hard at the academy and with the youth, and you feel that."

In pre-season he was allowed to even train with the first team. "I learned a lot there, it was special to be with them on the pitch. This season, I aim to get a few matches with the U21s, other than that, I just want to do my thing with the U18s."

His schedule is like one of those in the first team. "We live like pros, we train in the morning, in the afternoon it's mostly getting rest to do some fitness after that. School is only on monday morning."

"The first two months were quite hard because my English wasn't good enough. Now that's going better and I perform better on the pitch aswell. When I compare two others, I've adapted very quickly", admitted the young attacking midfielder.

He is one of the jokers in the dressing room. "I joke around sometimes yes. Usually I pronounce a word or two wrong which makes everyone laugh either way."
