Mourinho, Faria make me feel a part of Man Utd - Granada loanee Pereira

Published on: 30 March 2017

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho and assistant Rui Faria have made Andreas Pereira feel a a part of the club during his loan with Granada.

The 21-year-old attacking midfielder joined the Spanish club in the summer and is enjoying a successful spell at Los Carmenes, despite the fact the team sits 19th on the table.

Pereira may have had some trepidation early in his stint in Spain but insists that Mourinho and Faria continue to check in to ease his fears.

"It was also nice to hear from Jose Mourinho [ahead of the loan] and it's nice that the people at United trust me and I always feel that they are watching," he told ManUtd.com.

"For me, that's very important. I don't feel like you're left alone, when you go on loan, if you know what I mean, and it feels good. I still feel part of it. I'm doing my thing here but I'm still a United player and that's the end of the story.

"Rui Faria sometimes sends me messages and asks how it is going. He contacted me to say I scored a good goal and I am happy when I get recognised for doing good things and to know that they're watching.

"I'm very happy that the fans watch me too and I am focused here in Granada on taking them out of this situation. Hopefully, I will come back next season and show the fans and everyone at United that I am ready."
