“He’s progressing, also against Everton (in the indoors game),” Sky Sports quoted Ten Hag as saying.

“I was really happy with his performance, I was happy with his performance in the World Cup, his progress is really good. He’s come on and had an effect so that’s the next step.”

Pellistri has played just two games for Manchester United across all competitions this season and has made one assist.
