The 22-year-old was the exclamation point on a summer during which new Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag attempted to upgrade the squad in the hope of injecting new life into a club coming off its worst Premier League finish. Alongside bringing in Christian Eriksen and Real Madrid's Casemiro, Ten Hag raided his former club Ajax, for Lisandro Martinez and Antony.
