Today, Manchester United is playing at home against Real Sociedad in the second leg of the Europa League Round of 16. Head coach Ruben Amorim surprised everyone by starting 18-year-old Aidan Heaven in the lineup.

Details: The Portuguese coach explained his decision, stating that Heaven earned this opportunity through his hard work in training and during matches.

Quote:

"Aidan Heaven made the starting lineup because when you perform well in training and matches, you get rewarded for it. We eagerly anticipate his performance."

This is Aidan Heaven's first start in his senior career. Previously, he came off the bench twice.

Heaven joined Manchester United from Arsenal this winter for 1.8 million euros.
