With first place in Group F of the Champions League already confirmed, Ralph Rangnick spared several key figures in the squad and fired less used players in Manchester United’s 1-1 draw with Young Boys. Some have come off the bench, like Tom Heaton, who made his debut for the team nearly 20 years after arriving at the club.
The goalkeeper who replaced Dean Henderson on Wednesday evening – 68 minutes into the game with the Swiss national team – entered the world of Red Devils Too young, in the 2002/03 season, to promote the under-17 team of Wrexham. Then he went through all levels of training and was promoted even before Sir Alex Ferguson to the association of the biggest stars of the English group.
This was followed by several trials on loan – Swindon Town, Antwerp (Belgium), Cardiff, Queens Park Rangers, Rochdale and Wycombe – punctuated by non-competitive seasons at Old Trafford. Who left permanently in 2010 at the invitation of Cardiff.
However, the England international – playing three matches to select the Three Lions – such as Bristol, Burnley and Aston Villa, even, this season, has proposed a return to is yours United. With De Gea resting, he now has the right to hear the start of a Champions League match sitting on the bench, far from imagining that this would be the night he would fulfill an old dream. At the age of 35 years.
