Manchester United Double winner Paul Parker believes Tyrell Malacia has a big future at Old Trafford.

Parker sees the Holland left-back as a long-term prospect for United manager Erik ten Hag.

He told Bonuscodebets: “Tyrell started off really well at Man United and had a bit of a downfall, maybe because he has been lacking a bit of confidence."

“I have previously criticised Luke Shaw, which was deserved because he is acting wrong when things aren't going his way but we can't take away from him that he has performed really well for Man United this season.

“Malacia couldn't argue over being on the bench because Luke Shaw was doing exceptionally well so he needed to accept it and not knock on the manager's door to ask questions, but he has been bothered by it, of course."

But Parker said of the Dutchman: “I do believe that he will be a key player for Man United in the future.

“I think that he is looking forward to having a pre-season for Man United, where he isn't the new kid on the block and maybe he can gain a bit of confidence there."

“He will improve, but will he take over Luke Shaw's position already by the beginning of next season? Not unless Shaw is going to commit football suicide. He has to accept that but with time and when he starts feeling like a true Manchester United player, I believe he can do a good job."
