Manchester United star Leny Yoro has enjoyed a fantastic start to the 2025-26 season.
Yoro has started seven Premier League games and featured in each of the ten encounters this campaign.
He spoke to the media recently and his mature comments perfectly captured the team-first mentality Amorim is trying to build at United.
He said (via The Guardian): “The character is really important, for the atmosphere of the team.
“I think the club is doing well with this, to take only people who can bring good things to the team.
“We don’t want any bad things in the team. It’s really important for us to be focused on the team, don’t do any drama.
“We cannot build something with bad energy or bad atmosphere or bad characters.”
United will be a better place without drama
Yoro’s words will have delighted both Amorim and the fans, who have grown weary of the off-field distractions that plagued United in recent years.
There have been several instances over the last few years where the player power has led to the downfall of a manager.
United continue to place enormous faith in their young players, but not every prospect can handle the spotlight or stay grounded under pressure.
Building a positive culture is supremely important, a value heavily emphasised by the club’s Director of Football, Jason Wilcox.
A player can possess breathtaking talent but he does not have a place at Old Trafford if his mentality centres around individualism.
Despite being just a teenager, he speaks like a leader, focused entirely on the collective good rather than personal glory.
The Frenchman has impressed with his composed and tenacious display in the right centre-back spot.
With Noussair Mazraoui enduring a stop-start season due to injuries, Yoro has seized the opportunity to cement his place and accelerate his development.
Amorim will be hoping that Yoro continues to thrive as he has the potential to be one of the best defenders in his age group.
