Who is the 29-year-old Portuguese Betinho?
one might ask that.
Anyway, at the time of writing, he is officially registered to Manchester United’s Premier League squad with shirt number XI.
Premier League football kicked off again on Boxing Day. And today (Tuesday) Manchester United return to action when they face Nottingham Forest at home to Old Trafford.
The question is whether the club’s “new takeover” is included in the squad for the match.
Many have noticed that the mysterious Portuguese Betinho has appeared in the club’s official squad list on the Premier League website after the winter break.
The 29-year-old striker is registered with the number 11 shirt, the same number previously worn by suspended player and rape suspect Mason Greenwood at the club.
So who is Betinho?
He plays in the second division
Referring to his stage name and date of birth (July 21, 1993), Betinho is a former Portuguese striker for the Portugal U-21 national team who last played for Portuguese second-division club Espinho, where he scored five goals in 13 league matches last season.
In 2014, the Sporting-born striker played 13 minutes in the Championship on loan at Brentford.
How he ended up, in the winter of 2022, in Manchester United’s official Premier League squad, to which he should have also belonged since 2019, is not left out yet.
