Manchester United’s manager, Ruben Amorim, has praised 18-year-old Ayden Heaven following his standout Premier League debut against Arsenal, as reported by Metro. Heaven, who moved to Manchester United from Arsenal’s youth academy in January, was given an unexpected chance to play due to an injury to Leny Yoro. Despite facing his former team, the young defender showed confidence, composure, and strong defensive skills.
Amorim was clearly impressed with Heaven’s performance and hinted at a promising future for the teenager. Speaking after the match, Amorim said, “He did very well. He’s calm with the ball, aggressive when needed, and I believe we have a special talent here.”
The manager also highlighted Heaven’s attitude and dedication, saying, “He’s eager to learn and grow. His mindset is excellent, and he has everything it takes to become a top player.”
Heaven’s strong debut comes at a crucial time for Manchester United, who have been dealing with injuries and inconsistent form. His performance could provide a much-needed boost to the team’s defense, offering Amorim a fresh option to strengthen the squad.
