11 points for Red Mamba in his first game in the red and white

Dream debut. Nico Mannion’s first in the Olimpia Milano jersey è was definitely positive. On the night of the Chacho Rodriguez celebration, the former Varese point guard played a game of great personality, finishing with 11 points (4/5 from the field). For the Forum audience è he has already become a true idol.

Very satisfied coach Ettore Messina who, thanks to the Red Mamba, finally has a play that can penetrate: “He played very well on both sides of the court. He and Dimitrijevic are different. Nenad è more perimeter while Nico often looks for penetration. It was not easy to do that with Real Madrid but è he was very good”, the words of the red and white coach.

Ettore Messina himself then pointed out that the arrival of Nico Mannion is also good for Nenad Dimitrijevic himself. The two will fight for as much space on the court as possible but, at the same time, with the Red Mamba on the roster, the Macedonian point guard will have a department partner with whom to share responsibilities. In short, a healthy rivalryà.

Just one “tip” that is, don&#39t put too many expectations on Nico Mannion who, after all, è just arrived and has no major experience at certain levels. Regardless, the first with Olimpia Milano è was a dream: “It’s been a long process what brought me here but I’m happy”. The Olimpia fans are also happy.

Joshua Zirkzee, season over: first year at United to forget

Published

on

Joshua Zirkzee’s first season in a Manchester United shirt is ending in the worst way. The Dutch striker, who arrived from Bologna last summer for more than 40 million euros, suffered a serious hamstring injury in his left knee during the last Premier League match against Newcastle. Confirming the news was coach Ruben Amorim himself in his pre-Europa League press conference, “Zirkzee will not be available for the rest of the season. He has to think about recovery and preparing for next year.”

A real mockery for the talented youngster, who was experiencing a positive moment in terms of personal growth, despite an overall complicated season for the Red Devils. Zirkzee thus ends his first year at Old Trafford with 7 goals and 3 assists in 48 total appearances, a haul perhaps lower than expected, but still indicative of a player who was finding space and confidence.

Manchester United’s season, punctuated by injuries and fluctuating performances, might only find a small light in the eventual Europa League victory. But the loss of Zirkzee at this crucial moment represents yet another tile on an already very complicated year for Amorim.

Ahead of the summer, the former Bologna man’s future remains to be written. The English club is already planning to intervene in the market again to reinforce the offensive department. And while it seems difficult to think of an immediate transfer of Zirkzee after only one year, it is not excluded that one between him and Højlund could leave Old Trafford. The return to the field, in any case, will not come until next season.
