Facundo Pellistri's loan spells with Alaves have been pretty disappointing. He returned to the La Liga side this season after a temporary move there last term, but he has only played 665 minutes and has started just six times.
With Alaves finishing bottom of the table and Pellistri's bid for regular first-team football blocked by 32-year-old Edgar Mendez, many would assume that even considering Pellistri as ready to make an impact at Manchester United would be incredibly optimistic. But when he plays for Uruguay it seems absurd to think that he's not a first-team regular already.
For his national team, Pellistri is an unstoppable force down the right wing. He is surprisingly physical for a player of his size and he has great ability on the ball.
