Man United’s Rising Star Takes a Tumble…
Ayden Heaven’s Premier League debut for Manchester United was a bit of a rollercoaster — with more loop-de-loops than a theme park ride. Following his star turn in Arsenal’s pre-season, Heaven faced an epic plot twist against Leicester. The skies opened up, and alas, Ayden took a dramatic tumble and injured himself mid-game.
Before joining United for a cool £1 million, Heaven donned an Arsenal shirt in a pre-season match against his future club. His first encounter with the Red Devils was as comical as it was impressive — a mistake gifted Rasmus Hojlund a goal, yet Heaven’s perseverance had Mikel Arteta cheering like a proud parent by the closing whistle. Who knew a Gunners shirt came with a boomerang function?
Fast forward to his United debut against Leicester: Heaven’s first start lasted only until the 51st minute, courtesy of an accidental rendezvous with gravity after clashing with Patson Daka. Which left him signaling for an early exit like a high-end runway model. His manager, Ruben Amorim, hinted that with some R&R in the international break, there’s hope yet for Heaven’s swift return — since he managed to leave the stadium strutting without crutches, just a fashionable boot. Onward and upward, Ayden!
