United manager Ruben Amorim expressed admiration for centre-back Ayden’s paradise, highlighting three key attributes he believes make young players unique.
Paradise moved from Arsenal to Manchester United in January, and after Chido Obi’s footsteps in September last year, he was the second young talent to transition from the Gunners to Old Trafford to Old Trafford.
After joining Manchester United, Heaven quickly integrated into the first team despite having registered only one senior appearance before his transfer. In his recent Premier League, he replaced injured Leny Yoro from the bench at halftime, a dramatic encounter with his former club.
Amorim elaborated on his thoughts on paradise ahead of Manchester United’s upcoming clash with Leicester City in a pre-match press conference on Friday. He noted that the defender’s confidence, impressive rhythm and sharp defensive ability impressed him in the high pressure situation in the fine zone.
“If he continues at this rate, he will definitely earn more playing time.” Amorim said acknowledging the potential of young players. “Of course, he’s still at a gentle age. So far this season, he’s played only about 45 minutes in the Under-21 game and has only played in our first team for a few minutes, recently hitting the final in a full game.”
Amorim continues to describe heaven as one “It’s very complete.” It also emphasized the need for further development. “In the Premier League, he will face a variety of different players and will face challenges he has never encountered before. So we are carefully integrating him into the team and recognizing his young people and the significant growth he still needs to achieve.”
