He performed admirably for United in their 3-2 triumph over Real Betis.
After his most recent preseason performance, a highly regarded alum of Manchester United’s academy is predicted to gain first-team minutes in the upcoming months.
On Wednesday night, Erik ten Hag’s team defeated Real Betis 3-2 thanks to goals from Marcus Rashford, Amad Diallo, and Casemiro. It was the team’s first victory of the US preseason tour.
Winger Amad was the talk of San Diego, where he stole the show just days after declaring he would be content to play at Old Trafford for the rest of his career. Many people even backed the Ivorian to start their Premier League opener against Fulham.
Several players, including young full-back Harry Amass, displayed impressive skills at the Snapdragon Stadium.
Due to his style of play, the 17-year-old—who was named in United’s first-team lineup for their match against Liverpool in April—will unavoidably be compared to Luke Shaw.
Additionally, he demonstrated his attacking skills against Betis on Wednesday with a confident performance.
These are the comments made by admirers of Amass on social media.
“I was a fan before, but it looks better at first team level than I thought,” one person commented. I’m concerned about his physical ability (the limitations of a 17-year-old body), so I’m not sure I want him to play more than 10 90s, maybe fifteen at most. Needs work on his mind as well, but he’s a fantastic player; I adore him.”

Another person wrote: “He’s genuinely absurd. He will play a significant role for us in the years to come. He has a tremendous engine, and I adore how he constantly offers himself on the overlap. Luke Shaw-like.
“It’s crazy how much he looks like Shaw,” remarked a third, and “the fact this boy is still 17,” noted a fourth. We are dealing with another important player.”
“If you’re old enough, you’re good enough,” a fifth person said. Amass, the child, is prepared. Before the preseason began, questions were raised about his height and physique. These worries are still there, but he did a good job handling the questions. This boy’s moves both on and off the ball are excellent, as is the way he plays out of pressure and anticipates second balls.
“There is some raw-ness in the passing regard but this boy can evade pressure so well, Carrington has given us a gem & may have saved us £ again, as Mazraoui and Dalot can both play on the left side which may negate the need to buy an LB.”
Luke Shaw recently answered a question about which young players supporters should keep an eye out for, which gives you an idea of how well regarded Amass is. He told GOAL, “He’s a young left back from Man United.” “Harry Amass.”
