Manchester United wing-back Patrick Dorgu show him class again as Denmark wipe Belarus 6-0 for their 2026 World Cup qualifying match on Thursday night.
The 20-year-old no just play well — e even score him second international goal, tapping home from close range. Later, na him shot rebound wey help Rasmus Hojlund bag him second goal before halftime.
Funny enough, Hojlund still dey technically on loan to Napoli from Man United, but the deal go soon turn permanent next summer for around £38 million. So na two Red Devils boys wey dey make Denmark shine right now.
Dorgu performance no fit pass Ruben Amorim eye. The United boss go surely dey reason whether to return the young baller back to the starting lineup when dem face Liverpool on October 19.
Dorgu Shine for Denmark Big Win Over Belarus
Dorgu no start United last game against Sunderland — Amorim choose Diogo Dalot instead as left wing-back. But after wetin he show for Denmark, e go hard make coach still bench am again.
Even though critics don talk say Dorgu never really settle for Old Trafford since he join from Lecce, this Denmark match prove say the talent still dey inside am. According to Sofascore, the left-back get:
• 75 touches * 80% pass accuracy (41 out of 51 passes complete) * 5 ground duels won from 9 * 3 shots and 3 fouls won * And most impressively — no opponent dribble pass am even once!
The guy turn full-on attacking weapon that night. Every time e overlap, Belarus defenders dey panic.
Will Dorgu Start Against Liverpool?
Ruben Amorim go dey watch him players closely during this international break, and Dorgu don use this kind performance take raise serious question mark for selection.
The youngster still get one more World Cup qualifier — against Greece on Sunday — before he return to England. If he deliver again, e go enter that Liverpool clash with ginger and confidence full body.
With Dalot no really impressing for the last game, all signs dey point say Dorgu fit reclaim him spot when Premier League return.
Dorgu join United from Lecce in January and don play 27 matches for the club, providing two assists so far. But if he continue like this, e fit soon become one of Amorim’s go-to men for the left side.
TPB Verdict: If Amorim get sense, he go start Dorgu against Liverpool. The boy dey in form, confidence high, and na this kind young blood United need right now to spark something fresh.
