New Man United star is ready to start vs Man City next month | OneFootball

Manchester United continued their pre-season preparations at Murrayfield Stadium earlier today.

The Red Devils registered a 2-0 win over Rangers after goals from Amad Diallo and Joe Hugill in each half.

The friendly also marked the non-competitive debut of summer signing Leny Yoro, who arrived from Lille earlier in the week.

Although the 18-year-old centre-back only played 45 minutes, he showed his class with an impressive passing accuracy of 92 percent.

Yoro completed four out of his seven long balls, winning all of his tackles and duels.

The youngster had one nervous moment with a misplaced pass. He made amends with a big block before Andre Onana saved the follow-up effort.

The Frenchman has been with the squad for less than three days but has already shown his quality with his passing range and defensive skills.

The upcoming pre-season tour of the United States should help him adapt to United’s playing style better before the start of the new campaign.

United face Manchester City in the Community Shield on August 10 at Wembley Stadium. Yoro should be fully fit and firing to start against United’s fiercest rivals.

Yoro, who has been described as ‘very ambitious‘ by manager Paulo Fonseca, could line up alongside Lisandro Martinez in the heart of the backline.
