Manchester United's pre-season campaign has got underway this afternoon in Helsinki with a clash against

Wrexham

, and one of their new boys has made his debut in red.

Having signed for just under £50m from

Chelsea

earlier this week,

Andrey Santos

wasted no time in getting minutes under his belt, starting alongside fellow ex-Blue Mason Mount in midfield.

The 22-year-old got off to an impressive start with the stats telling the story and hopefully acting as a sign of things to come.

Alongside Youri Tielemans, Santos is two of likely three new midfield signings as Michael Carrick revamps his side in light of Casemiro's exit and Manuel Ugarte's serious knee injury.

Could he quickly become a fan favourite at Old Trafford?
