Leny Yoro has sent a message to Manchester United fans after his impressive debut against Rangers.
United won 2-0 against their Scottish opponents in a friendly thanks to goals from Amad Diallo and Joe Hugill.
Fans also got the chance to see Jadon Sancho play for United for the first time since August, as the striker was integrated into the team after positive talks with manager Ten Hag.
It was also the first game of pre-season for Andre Onanan, who will be hoping to continue the high form he had in the second half of last season.

But much has been said about 18-year-old Yoro, who moved to Old Trafford from Lille on Thursday after United paid €50m plus a further €12m in add-ons.
The French centre-back shone on his debut, playing only the first half but showing calmness and assurance with the ball at his feet.
After the match, Yoro spoke to Man United’s official channel, giving his thoughts on the debut and a message for the fans.
“I just want to say thank you to all the fans. I hope to see him as soon as possible at Old Trafford”, said Yoro first.
“My debut was incredible. I am happy with my appearance. The staff makes me feel comfortable, for me, it’s very good”.
“We will go to America for three competitive matches. The team will give everything to win them”, concluded the Frenchman./Football Match Up/
