Manchester United Football Club
New addition at center back
Jolo
In an official interview with the club, he reflects on his soccer upbringing and shares his experience playing against some of the top offensive players in the game.
Jolo recalls, "When I was young, a lot of people compared me to Nani because I was as fast as him and I liked the player. For me, it was my goal to become a player like Nani, but it's different now because now I'm a defender! But Nani is really my favorite player."
Yoro, who used to be a striker, said of his transition, "I used to be a striker and now everything is different, but I'm really fast and tall, so I've scored a lot of goals."
Speaking about his favorite offensive player he has faced in his career, Yoro said, "Of course, I really enjoyed playing against Mbappe, it was really, really challenging, so it helped me a lot to improve myself. It's also nice to play against Watkins because he's a strong striker in the Premier League."
Yolo's speed and height allow him to excel on the defensive end, while his confidence in his speed and attacking prowess reflects his all-around character as a defender. United fans are looking forward to the signing of Yolo, and hope that he will play an important role in the defense and continue to show great performances against top offensive players.
