"I want to say thank you to the fans - I hope to see you soon in Old Trafford! It [my debut] was incredible. I am happy with my performance. The staff make me comfortable. For me, it is really good. We go to America for three competitive games. The team will give everything to win them."

"He's already shown himself" - Manchester United goalkeeper on Leny Yoro after pre-season win
Manchester United goalkeeper Andre Onana shared his opinion on Leny Yoro after the Frenchman made his debut for the Red Devils. While speaking to reporters after the pre-season win against Rangers, the Cameroonian shot-stopper said (via Manchester Evening News):
"That's why he's here [he has lots of talent]. If you want to be a Manchester United player, you must have quality and he's already shown himself in the first half. He's a young player, a talented player, good on the ball, so we're going to enjoy him this season."
"He will [have the temperament], he will, and we're here to help him. We're going to give him time, we know he's going to be alright and we have very good scouts here, so if they made him come, that means he's got a lot of quality," added Onana.
The Red Devils play against Fulham F.C. in their first Premier League game of the next season on August 16 at Old Trafford.
