Former Manchester United star, Peter Schmeichel has said there is ‘a lot of pressure’ on January signing Patrick Dorgu to hit the ground running at the club.
Dorgu joined Man United from Lecce towards the end of the transfer window.
The Denmark star featured in Man United’s Premier League defeat to Tottenham last weekend.
Speaking about Dorgu, Schmeichel insisted that the 20-year-old is playing well for Ruben Amorim’s side.
“It’s big to come to a club like Manchester United – a club in trouble,” Schmeichel told Campo when quizzed on Dorgu’s move to United.
“They haven’t been in as much trouble as they are now since the 1930s maybe.
And the only significant player that the club and Ruben Amorim have brought in is Patrick Dorgu. So there’s a lot of pressure on him.
“I think he is playing well. In his first game he only had to play 45 minutes, and you get a little idea of what Ruben Amorim wants with the team.”
