Shaw has lived up to Mata’s expectations with a series of outstanding displays during England’s run to the semi-finals of Euro 2020.
Left-back Shaw produced a sensational performance as England crushed Ukraine in Rome to reach the last-four.
Shaw provided two assists in the space of less than four minutes as he helped lead England within one game of reaching the European Championship final.
And United team-mate Mata never doubted Shaw’s talent as he backed him to become a star for club and country.
Mata signed his book for Shaw with a personal message, predicting the defender would become the best left back in the Premier League.
His words have certainly been backed up with Shaw enhancing his reputation during Euro 2020.
Shaw has made the second most assists at this summer’s tournament, setting up three goals for Gareth Southgate’s side.
