Leon Rocks No.30 Jersey, Piques Fans’ Curiosity…
Hold onto your football socks, folksāDiego Leon, the newest addition to Manchester United’s star-studded galaxy, will be rocking the almighty No.30 jersey this season! Like a rare PokĆ©mon emerging from the Paraguayan jungle, Leon comes charging across the Atlantic from Cerro Porteno, clutching a shiny long-term contract in his youthful 18-year-old hands. Introduced to his new home at the Theatre of Dreams on July 5, our brave Left-Back leapt straight into the lion’s den of pre-season training just two days later, trying on his new red kit like a kid at Christmas.
As the clock ticks closer to their showdown with Arsenal on August 17, United’s red army is getting their teasers with a Serving of Scandi Soccer! Manchester United will be juggling five pre-season friendlies, kicking off against Leeds United at the Friends Arena, like a Viking warrior feasting on Swedish meatballs. Will Leon and his samba sidekick Matheus Cunha, fresh off the Wolf Express, bedazzle the fans and sizzle the pitch? Only the football godsāand manager Ruben Amorimāknow!
Leon dons the sacred No.30 jersey, a number last graced by keeper Nathan Bishop in a distant football eon of 2023. Meanwhile, Cunha’s dynamite footwork comes draped under the legendary No.10. While these charming imports train to impress the boss man, fans pop popcorn and grab their opera glasses, eager for their debut in the world-famous red of United. Manchester is buzzing like bees with the promise of new beginnings and hopefully, trophy-laden endings!
