Anthony Elanga tells Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag where to play him

Anthony Elanga has handed Erik ten Hag another headache this summer after explaining his favoured role at Manchester United.

Elanga is currently on international duty with Sweden, and caught the eye of United fans on Sunday after scoring his first goal for his country in their 2-1 defeat to Norway. After coming off the bench, the 20-year-old linked up well with Dejan Kulusevski before supplying a superb curled finish to halve the deficit late on.

The goal came with Elanga playing on the opposite side to where supporters saw him make his breakthrough with United during the 2021/22 campaign. Having been deployed mostly on the right at club level, the youngster was given the chance to show what he can do from the left at the weekend.
