Former Manchester United player and popular MUTV analyst Bojan Djordjic is backing Victor Lindelof to shine at Old Trafford, having noted his Swedish compatriot’s recent development.
Lindelof replaced the injured Marcos Rojo at half-time in Sunday’s Manchester derby and produced an accomplished performance, showing admirable composure and good form in difficult circumstances.
It was his 13th appearance of a debut season that has involved challenges for the 23-year-old, who arrived from Benfica in the summer and has required time to acclimatise to English football.
Yet, in recent weeks, Lindelof has started to show his true quality with the Reds and that is no surprise to our former Academy graduate Djordjic, who knows the player extremely well.
