Manchester United’s new recruit Facundo Pellistri has expressed his delight after scoring his first goal for the club’s under-23s.
The hot prospect is to do his job with the United youth team, where it will hopefully rise to a standard that will consistently get him into the first team.
Pellistri scored his first goal for the club on Friday, scoring in the U23’s 3-1 win over Southampton.
He said: « I am very happy with the team. The intensity was very good and luckily we take this match because it was very difficult. But I’m very happy with that.
« It was amazing [to score]. I was really looking forward to this goal. It’s my first goal and I’m very happy with it. Hopefully more will come. ”
« I’ve settled in a lot better, » he said. “I enjoy my time here in Manchester, at this club – with the U23s and with the first team.
« My teammates are very nice to me and this is a very important reason why I feel so much better about my performances and my life here. ”
The young hopefuls could be selected to play Accrington Stanley in the EFL Trophy second round game on Tuesday night.
« He’s still settled in, » he told the Manchester Evening News. « He has trained with us this week and it probably helped him to be on the field because he has a better relationship with the players on the field and understands their game better because he trains more with them. « . That can only help him.
« I thought his performance improved again [against Southampton] and he probably could have scored another goal after hitting the bar.
“He said it would boot the next time he scores. He’s making good progress, but I don’t want to put too much pressure on him.
Pellistri has not had a first team appearance for the Red Devils since arriving.
Strangely enough, however, this means that he is not allowed to be in the same changing rooms as his U23 teammates.
