Leny Yoro had trained only once with Manchester United before pulling on his No.15 shirt and striding out at Murrayfield with his new teammates, some of whose names he will still have been trying to learn.
Striding is the operative word, given the 6ft 2ins defender’s telescopic legs, which proved they are capable of bailing United out of trouble. Premier League forwards might find themselves surprised at Yoro’s ability to stretch out a foot and take the ball away this season.
The 18-year-old was certainly the centre of attention in Edinburgh. Once again there was some disgruntlement at a few big names being left behind for a United friendly, with the club reporting that Victor Lindelof and Antony were missing for the second game in a row due to minor niggles. The name on the teamsheet that made the entrance fee worthwhile was Yoro.

It was slightly surprising to see the teenager thrown straight into the squad after completing his £58.9m move from Lille on Thursday night. He trained for the first time on Friday and was named in the travelling party for this trip, then started in Scotland’s capital as part of a rapid getting-to-know-you process.
When Yoro was born Jonny Evans was just beginning to force his way into first-team training sessions at Carrington. Their combined age of 54 was about right for a well-balanced central defensive pairing. When the real business begins Yoro is likely to find himself partnered with Lisandro Martinez, although United remain in the hunt for Matthijs de Ligt and would consider moving again for Jarrad Branthwaite if Everton drop their asking price.
But while you don’t want to draw definitive conclusions from a pre-season friendly played at a stadium famous for rugby, Yoro looked the real deal at Murrayfield. He received the loudest cheer pre-match from the outnumbered United fans and then played with a poise well beyond his years.
