During his first appearance under the colours of Manchester United during the trip to Lyon, young Leny Yoro was praised by his coach at a press conference. Despite a period of absence due to a fracture of the metatarsus, the 19-year-old defender seems to be gradually joining the Mencunian team. His equalizer, scoring his first goal in the Red Devils’ colours, was a key moment in the first half, even though it was not enough to ensure the team’s victory (2-2).

Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim expressed great satisfaction with Leny Yoro’s integration, pointing out that he was now “fully at home” within the club. Arrived last summer from LOSC as part of a transfer valued at 70 million euros, the player has already played 24 matches for a total of 1377 minutes. Ruben Amorim highlighted the young defender’s confidence and noted an improvement in his physical condition, which was initially a problem, due to the lack of preparation due to his injury.

The Portuguese technician concluded by saying that Leny Yoro was the result of the technical team’s work and that he now felt comfortable in the Carrington club. He highlighted the player’s high level, showing great esteem for his protégé and confirming his growing importance on the Mencunian team.
