Patrick Dorgu shares his expectations for his role at Manchester United with their supporters.

On a bright Sunday afternoon, the buzz around Old Trafford was palpable as Manchester United officially introduced their latest acquisition, Patrick Dorgu. Hailing from Lecce, the 20-year-old left wing-back has been making waves in the football world and his arrival at United has been the talk of the town.

Dorgu, who cost the club a whopping £25m with an additional £4.1m in add-ons, has quickly become the most significant signing for the Red Devils in the winter transfer window. Having already made 57 appearances for Lecce and scoring five goals in the Serie A, the young talent has also represented his country, Denmark, four times and even found the back of the net in his international debut against Switzerland.

With United struggling to find a suitable player for their left wing-back position, Dorgu's arrival has come as a blessing for manager Ruben Amorim. The Danish player is determined to bring a lot of intensity, energy, and physicality to the team, stating, "I think I'm going to bring a lot of intensity and physicality on the pitch. And a lot of energy and running."

Apart from his physical prowess, Dorgu also emphasized the importance of having a strong mindset in football. Having lived alone in Italy, he understands the need to stay focused and mentally strong amidst the distractions of the football world. "For me, it's the most important thing because there's a lot of talk about and around football. And you really need to be strong outside of football as well," he said.

The young player is excited to work with Amorim and is confident that the manager's preferred 3-4-3 formation will suit his style of play perfectly. "I'm really looking forward to working with the new manager and I feel the system suits me really well. So I'm excited to be here," Dorgu expressed.

In addition to Dorgu, United also signed 18-year-old centre-back Ayden Heaven from Arsenal. While the teenager has only made one senior appearance so far, his signing is seen as a potential investment for the future.

Despite the loan exits of Marcus Rashford and Antony, and the struggles of Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee, United did not make any signings for their front line. However, with the arrival of Dorgu and Heaven, the Red Devils have strengthened their squad and are ready to take on the challenges ahead.
