Facundo Pellistri has made it clear that he needs to be given minutes at Manchester United, telling Erik ten Hag: “I really want to start participating.”
Ten Hag has only been in the Old Trafford dugout for a matter of months, but is already facing a string of high-profile selection dilemmas, including the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Harry Maguire. Pellistri's is significantly less pressing, but he has gone public with his desire for more minutes.
The Uruguayan was signed by the Red Devils back in 2020, following their failed first pursuit of Jadon Sancho. But in the two years since his arrival, he has yet to make a competitive start for his parent side.
