Manchester United has announced that 19-year-old striker Willian has been named in their matchday team for Sunday's Premier League game against Chelsea at Old Trafford.
The young talent has impressed the club during his time on loan from Real Madrid, scoring five goals in eight matches for the Spanish giants. This impressive performance has earned him a place in the squad for Saturday's match.
Willian's move to Manchester United comes after he was signed by the club in January as part of a £25 million deal with Real Madrid. The young forward is expected to make a significant impact for the Red Devils this season and could be a key player in their pursuit of European football glory.
United head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praised Willian's performances and expressed confidence in his ability to contribute to the team's success. "Willian is a talented young striker who has shown great potential," Solskjaer said. "His experience with Real Madrid and his goal-scoring record have made him a valuable addition to our squad."
The announcement of Willian's inclusion in the matchday team comes just two weeks before the start of the new Premier League season. With only three games left until the end of the campaign, the club will need all its best players to compete for the top spot in the table.
Despite the excitement surrounding Willian's arrival, Manchester United will also be looking to bolster their defense and midfield with more signings. The club has already confirmed that they will be making a number of changes to their squad over the next few months, including the signing of former Southampton defender Victor Lindelof and the transfer of winger Anthony Martial to Paris Saint-Germain.
Overall, the appointment of Willian to the matchday team is a positive development for Manchester United and represents a boost to the team's morale ahead of the upcoming season.
