Daley Blind Responds To Matthijs de Ligt Message To United Fan’s

Manchester United beat Fulham 1-0 at Old Trafford in their 2024/25 Premier League opener.

Fulham had control in the opening minutes of the contest between the two sides but United took total in the latter stages of the first half, with two quick chances for Bruno Fernandes but the Portuguese couldn’t convert.

Joshua Zirkzee ensured Manchester united walked away from Old Trafford with all three points after after a late strike from the Dutchman.

Matthijs de Ligt was also not left out of the action as he made his official debut in front of the Home support last night.

It was a great way to start the Premier League season for United, and a memorable way for De Ligt and co to begin their careers at the club.

The Netherlands international sent a message to supporters, expressing his excitement at making his first appearance for his new club.

Former Manchester United defender and Dutchman Daley Blind reached out to De Ligt via Instagram, posting two ‘fire emojis’ underneath his message.

Blind also shares something else in common with De Ligt. They are among eight players to represent both Manchester United and Bayern Munich.
