“We Have Found a Real Player” – Amorim on Ayden Heaven’s Debut
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has praised Ayden Heaven, calling him a “real player” after his impressive Premier League debut against Arsenal.
Heaven, an 18-year-old defender, joined United from Arsenal’s under-21 team in January for a reported £1.5 million fee. He made his first appearance for the club in their FA Cup loss to Fulham but truly caught attention during Sunday’s 1-1 draw with his former club.
Heaven replaced Leny Yoro at halftime after the French defender picked up a foot injury. Despite the pressure, the young defender stayed calm and didn’t allow any Arsenal player to dribble past him, earning praise from both fans and the media.
Amorim was impressed by the teenager’s composure and performance. “Ayden Heaven is so calm, so relaxed — he doesn’t feel the pressure. I believe we’ve found a real player,” Amorim said after the match.
Chelsea player Enzo Fernández is in discussions to join Manchester City. This information was revealed by Fabrizio Romano, who shared that the two clubs are discussing a potential deal.
He wrote: “Enzo Fernández has a verbal agreement with Manchester City on personal terms.
“Deal depends on club-to-club decision, as #MCFC have not sent an official bid yet, but contacts will take place soon; decision on price is up to Chelsea.
“Enzo could be out again this weekend.”
Manchester City manager Enzo Maresca mentions his captains for the team. He mentions Rúben Dias and Erling Haaland.
He shared “We have experienced players. For sure, we have leaders. Now we need to wait four or five more days until the transfer window closes to see if we can add one or two more captains to Ruben [Dias] and Erling , who at the moment are the two captains.”
Maresca confirmed the pair as part of his leadership group ahead of the 2026/27 season, with two more captains expected to be selected after the transfer window closes.
Chelsea manager speaks on the team and shares thoughts on considering a change in goalkeepers, giving another goalkeeper, Mike Penders, a chance.
“Penders is part of the squad, so he has an opportunity. We will decide and then I am giving the team tomorrow to the players, so I prefer to respect that they know first.”
