However, this heavy hit did not knock down Manchester United. Sir Busby led the team to greatness with amazing perseverance. There are many reasons why the Manchester United club can achieve success, but what can not be ignored is the strong support of the youth training system.

Since becoming the club’s chairman, he has been with the club’s secretary-general Walter Klime and the chief ball. It's on this basis that Luigi Roca fully tapped local talents and vigorously developed the youth training system.
