Erik ten Hag reveals why Noussair Mazraoui was signed by Man Utd, citing two important factors.

Manchester United's latest signing, Noussair Mazraoui, was previously playing for Bayern Munich in Germany. His impressive skills and versatility caught the attention of manager Erik ten Hag, who was keen to bring him to Old Trafford. Along with teammate Matthijs de Ligt, Mazraoui joined the club in a double deal worth a whopping £60 million. He was brought in to fill the void left by Aaron Wan-Bissaka, who had departed for West Ham after five years with the team.

Ten Hag spoke about Mazraoui's abilities at a press conference before United's first game of the season against Fulham. He confirmed that both De Light and Mazraoui would be available for the match and praised the Moroccan's composure on the ball. According to the Dutchman, Mazraoui is a player who thrives under pressure, which is a valuable asset in English football where there is always pressure on the ball. He also mentioned that Mazraoui has a knack for finding solutions, which is crucial for a team looking to score more goals and create more chances.

However, Ten Hag did point out that the team needs to work on their finishing in order to be more clinical and aggressive. He believes that they have enough players with scoring abilities but need to be more efficient in the final third. Mazraoui, who has also played as a left-back for his national team, may have to fill in for the injured Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia. But Ten Hag is confident that they have other options such as Martinez and Diogo Dalot who can also play in that position.

Speaking about Shaw's return, Ten Hag assured fans that the player will be back after the September international break. He acknowledged Shaw's importance to the team and stated that they are eagerly waiting for his return. However, he also emphasized the need to be patient and not rush the recovery process. It is clear that Shaw's return will be a significant boost for United, and Ten Hag is looking forward to having him back on the field.
