Leicester teen Conor Tee likened to Man Utd legend Scholes

Leicester City teen Conor Tee has been likened to Manchester United legend Paul Scholes.

Tee made his debut for Leicester City's under-23s in last night's 2-0 Premier League International Cup defeat to Reading.

And coach Steve Beaglehole stated: "Too be fair, Conor Tee, his delivery tonight was fantastic.

"He's a young player who's got a lot of talent and I'm not going to say he's going to be another Scholesy (Paul Scholes), but he was like that at his age.

"You look at him and he could get away with playing in an under-18s and under-17s team so I was pleased with him."
