Man Utd striker Henriquez: Wigan right club for me

Manchester United striker Angelo Henriquez is delighted with his loan move to Wigan Athletic.

Even though Wigan once again find themselves embroiled in a survival fight, the 18-year-old striker is convinced he has joined the right club.

"The games in Manchester United's Under-21 team have taught me what to expect from English players because over here it is a very physical style of football," said Henriquez.

"I have been improving on that side of my game since I came to England but with that I have to be clever technically as well.

"That is why Wigan is a good club for me to come to because players in the team are very similar in that respect. They are physically strong but very clever when they have possession of the ball."
