Patrick Dorgu, the promising 20-year-old Danish defender, is set to become Manchester United’s latest acquisition under manager Ruben Amorim.

Dorgu, who has been a standout at Italian club Lecce, is expected to be present at Old Trafford to watch his new team face Crystal Palace this Sunday.

The transfer, valued at £29 million, marks Amorim’s inaugural signing since taking the helm at United. Dorgu expressed his enthusiasm about the move, stating, “It’s a great opportunity for me to join such a prestigious club.”

In related news, Manchester United has bolstered their defense by signing 18-year-old center-back Ayden Heaven from Arsenal. Heaven is expected to join the first-team squad immediately, adding depth to United’s defensive options.

Meanwhile, United had planned to loan out left-back Tyrell Malacia to Benfica following Dorgu’s arrival. However, negotiations fell through as the Portuguese club did not meet United’s valuation for the loan fee and buy-option.

On the attacking front, Manchester United is looking to strengthen their forward line as they prepare to finalize Marcus Rashford’s loan move to Aston Villa.

Rashford, who has been out of favor under Amorim, is set to undergo a medical at Villa. The loan deal includes an option for Villa to make the transfer permanent for around £40 million in the summer.

We speak the same language, so working together will be smooth.”
