Most 14-year-olds are thinking about school, homework and hanging out with friends. But JJ Gabriel is about to do something incredible - he's been asked to train with Manchester United's first team at times this season.

That means JJ, who's still at school, will sometimes join the same training sessions as stars like Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro.

JJ only joined United's academy a few years ago, but coaches already reckon he's one of their brightest young talents.

Last weekend, JJ made his Under-18 Premier League debut against Everton, playing brilliantly in a 1–0 win, in a game where many of the players were older and bigger.

JJ is too young to play in the FA Youth Cup this year - the rules say players must be born before 31 August 2010. But that hasn't stopped him from playing with older age groups.

Back in April, he became the youngest ever United player to appear for the Under-18s - and he scored twice in a huge 13–1 victory over Leeds.

Now, at just 14, JJ Gabriel is already training with Manchester United's biggest stars. Who knows - in a few years, he could be running out at Old Trafford in front of 75,000 fans.
