The Zidane Iqbal fan club will not be surprised to see their favourite player pulling out the stops for Manchester United pre-season.
At 19, the midfielder already has a huge following as he leads the way for the up-and-coming generation of Arab talent. He has more caps for Iraq (two) than he does competitive senior appearances for United (one), but that will soon surely change.
Iqbal has been the standout starlet during United ’s pre-season tour so far with three very impressive substitute appearances. He wasn’t the name many academy followers had tipped to shine under Erik ten Hag this summer, though.
