Matthews in his first season of prfessional football but, at 17, has started just 12 Championship games for City but is already seen as a key, star player. He has also had a Wales Under 21 debut and been elevated to the senior squad. As if that's not enough, he's also scored for Cardiff from 45 yards out.
Matthews would seem to be a natural replacement for Gary Neville at Old Trafford, very similar in style.
City fans, however, will be dismayed to see another kid leave after half a season of football. All fans love local heroes but the last products of the system - players like Cameron Jerome, Chris Gunter and Aaron Ramsey - have all gone in no time.
Matthews, it would seem, is set to do the same.

It seems that all young talent is being stripped away from our club in the name of paying off debts with has beens, never would beens and risks being bought as replacements.
How many of our former players are now in the Premiership?
