Santos shines on Man Utd debut

Manchester United’s new signing Andrey Santos made an encouraging debut on 18 July 2026, starting in the pre‑season friendly against Wrexham in Helsinki. Santos, signed from Chelsea this month, looked composed on the ball, sharp in transitions and attracted positive notice from commentators and former players. United lost 0–1 (Sam Smith 39′), but Santos’s energy and passing gave an early glimpse of how he might fit into the squad as pre‑season continues.
