[Saba Sports News] According to British media reports, Manchester United has developed a detailed plan to help their newly signed 18-year-old youngster Sekou Kone adapts to his new environment. It is reported that in the past week, Manchester United arranged a dinner for Kone to dine with some youth team players to help him build a social circle, while also arranging suitable accommodation to ensure that the young man does not feel lonely in a new country. Last week, Kone watched Manchester United’s U18 team defeat Liverpool’s U18 team at Carrington, and insiders noted that Marcus Rashford also attended the match, which was scheduled before the first team training. Rashford introduced himself to Kone, and the two chatted on the sidelines. Manchester United did not promote Kone’s signing extensively; they believe that once he adapts to life in England, he will quickly provide help to the club. Born in 2006, Kone plays as a midfielder and has been selected for Mali’s U17 national team, playing 12 matches and providing 2 assists. He performed excellently in last year’s U17 World Cup, helping Mali secure third place.
