Erik ten Hag, manager of Manchester United, has explained why the club re-signed Jonny Evans.
Ten Had feels the veteran defender, who recently left relegated Leicester City, can have a significant impact on Manchester United’s younger players.
The Theatre of Dreams has offered the 35-year-old Northern Ireland defender a short-term contract.
Evans has arrived in Edinburgh with the rest of the squad for Wednesday’s pre-season friendly against Lyon.
All else being equal, he’ll most likely come off the bench before joining the squad in San Diego for the opening leg of the club’s US trip.
According to “Of course, I’ve known [about] him for a long time, and I knew his residence was here, in Manchester.”
“We welcomed him to come and train with us, to work on his fitness, and then I said not all of the players are in because the internationals are still on break.”
“We know he’s a very experienced player, but he’s also a very good person with a big personality, and I believe he has a lot of authority and can help the young players, especially in these situations.” As a result, it benefits everyone.”
