Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has shared what he likes most about young defender Ayden Heaven.
Heaven, who joined Man United from Arsenal in January, was quickly added to the first-team squad. The 19-year-old had only made one senior appearance for Arsenal before moving to Old Trafford.
In his last Premier League game, he replaced the injured Leny Yoro at half-time against his former club, Arsenal.
Speaking before Man United’s match against Leicester City, Amorim highlighted three qualities he admires in Heaven:
- Confidence – He plays with belief, even though he is still young.
- Speed – His pace helps him keep up with attackers.
- Defensive ability – He is strong at defending inside the penalty area.
Amorim also acknowledged that Heaven still has a lot to learn. The Premier League presents different challenges, and the coaching staff is working to help him develop. However, the manager is confident that if Heaven continues to improve, he will get more chances to play.
Manchester United fans will be eager to see how the young defender progresses under Amorim’s guidance.
