Alan Shearer makes bold prediction on Mason Greenwood future

Alan Shearer believes Mason Greenwood could become the Premier League’s all-time top goalscorer after an impressive debut season for Manchester United. Greenwood has scored his 17th goal in all competitions during the club's Premier League 1 - 1 draw with West Ham last night. The youngster is one of the most promising academy players of the Red Devils, and Shearer believes the 18-year-old is capable of breaking his own record of 260 Premier League goals. Speaking on Match of the Day, he said: "A potential superstar. I respect the power, left foot, right foot, and the way he gets his shot away early, he doesn’t give the keeper a chance to set himself. Whether it’s near-post or far-post. Everything is power, head down and hit it as hard as you can. I was taught at Southampton, by my old youth coach Dave Merrington, to concentrate on that right foot and make it unstoppable. Now, he can do it with his left and right foot. He gets it away early and the goalkeepers have no chance. I think in 12 or 13 years time, we could be talking about a Premier League record goalscorer."
