Manchester United midfielder Angel Gomes says he's prepared to be patient over his first team ambitions.

Gomes has already impressed at United and plenty of fans are desperate to see him break in to the first team but the 18-year-old is remaining level headed.

“I've got to put that [expectation] to one side," Gomes told ESPN FC.

“The best players get to the top because they have stayed level-headed.

"I've got to carry on working hard and keep putting everything in to training and games."
