The initial reaction in Manchester United circles to news of Youri Tielemans' impending arrival was positive. A former team-mate of current first-team coach Jonny Evans, Tielemans is noted for scoring Leicester City's winner in the 2021 FA Cup final and for Aston Villa in their Europa League final triumph over Freiburg in May. "Well done to the recruitment team because £35m for him is a phenomenal signing," said former midfielder Nicky Butt as he discussed the Belgian's potential impact with ex-United team-mate Paul Scholes on The Good, The Bad And The Football podcast.
