After confirmation of the deal of Thursday, Yoro is expected to start training soon and he will be travelling with the squad to on our pre-season tour of the US.
Garnacho and Amad both welcomed their newest team-mate to United, with messages on social media. The Argentina international wrote ‘Welcome bro!’, while Amad added: “Bienvenue Leny”.
Former United defender Rio Ferdinand added: “Love it”.
United fans are excited by the arrival of one of football’s best defensive prospects. It’s a big boost for the team and we can begin to look forward to next season.
That said, we still need a few more signings. Especially in midfield.
