West Ham United have had plenty of talented youth players in their ranks over the years.
Xande Silva has only been part of the fold at the London Stadium since August following his move from Vitoria Guimaraes, but he has been making an impression in the academy ranks.
The 21-year-old has netted seven goals this season, and two of those came on Monday night for the Under-23s.
Silva has been on the sidelines for the past two months with a hamstring injury, but he made a quick impact upon his return.
Over the course of 50 minutes, the youngster nabbed two goals in a 3-1 victory over Blackburn Rovers in their Premier League 2 clash.
The Portuguese ace is yet to get his first-team chance under manager Manuel Pellegrini, but after his performance for the development squad, many fans have called on the Chilean coach to give Silva an opportunity to shine in the Premier League.
