Dutch left-back Malacia, 22, has joined from Feyenoord, transforming into the chief stamping of the Ten Hag time all the while. The shield has associated up with his new accomplices on their pre-season visit through Thailand and Australia, and further signings could well follow.

 

Ten Hag has probably made a phone choice in order to perhaps checking RB Leipzig striker Brian Brobbey, while a move for Barcelona midfielder Frenkie de Jong stays possible. There is no doubt over Malacia, in any case, and the United director has figured out why the club acted to wrap up the trade early.

 

"I trust he's the high level left-back or full-back," Ten Hag told club media. "He suits the profile [we were looking for] and for the most part huge from each full-back is that he closes the right locale."

 

"He can similarly partake in the antagonistic side of our game, and he can do that overall well. I figure he will genuinely add to the gathering."

 

Malacia's appearance will see him fight with Luke Shaw and Alex Telles for a spot in United's pre-season visit XI. Another left-back decision, Brandon Williams, has stayed at home inferable from a minor actual issue concern.

 

Malacia, who played for Feyenoord in the Europa Conference League last, has taken the number 12 shirt at his new club. The number was last worn by Chris Smalling - one of his adversaries in that last - who left United for Roma in 2020.

 

The 22-year-old could play his most important minutes for United as they take on Liverpool in a genial in Bangkok on July 12. The Red Devils will then, travel to Australia for three further contraptions preceding returning to Europe.

 

Ten Hag's meeting team recalls different establishment gifts for extension to first-bunch regulars. Energetic right-back Ethan Laird is involved after a spell acquired at Bournemouth last season, while Alejandro Garnacho, Charlie Savage and Zidane Iqbal are moreover in the mix.

 

Uruguayan winger Facundo Pellistri has made the trip, but he has proposed he could search for a credit departure to play reliably before the World Cup. The 20-year-old was in and out of the gathering during a credit spell at Alaves last season, encountering move La Liga.
