In January 2002, 23-year-old Diego Fran joined Manchester United, having just had a brilliant season in the Argentine league. After coming to Manchester United, he formed the Red Devils' forward configuration with Van Nistrua and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, but Fran, who played in South America, was not very accustomed to the rhythm of the Premier League, and it was not until September 2002 that he scored his first goal for Manchester United through penalties, which was rated by the discerning British media as "the worst signing in half a century for Manchester United".
Easy balls can not score, to score into the world wave, this is the impression that Fran left at Manchester United, although it did not reach the heights it deserved under Ferguson, but the 2 goals against Liverpool, the Red Devils fans should not forget.
In two and a half seasons of Premier League travel, he made 97 appearances for Manchester United, scoring 17 goals, assisting 8 times, winning 1 Premier League title, 1 FA Cup title and 2 Community Shield titles.
Fran: "Manchester United is a team where all players want to play here, from the training facilities to the treatment of the staff, everything is perfect. I enjoyed my career as a Red Devil, but I hit a bottleneck there and couldn't find my form for a while. ”
