Altay Bayindir sends message after making his Manchester United debut

Altay Bayindir says Manchester United already feel like his new family after he finally made his debut for the club in their FA Cup victory over Newport County.

The Turkey international joined United from Fenerbahce on transfer deadline day last summer for £4.28million but fellow goalkeeper Andre Onana had started in all previous games this season.

However, with Onana on his way back from the Africa Cup of Nations following Cameroon's elimination, Bayindir was given the chance to represent United at Rodney Parade.

Bayindir had a few shaky moments but overall looked pretty solid and could have done very little about the two goals that he conceded in the match.

Speaking after the match, he revealed his pride to finally represent United and set himself the task of becoming even better in the years ahead.

"It is my first game. I can't say anything about this feeling," he told beIN Sports. "I am proud of myself. It is a very good feeling for me. The first Turkish player to play for a very big team and today we won. It is really a very good feeling. I am feeling very proud of myself.

"I am feeling very happy. Today is finished; tomorrow we will continue. I am always thinking one question, 'how can I be better, What do I need to do?' I will continue tomorrow in the morning.

"I am feeling like this is my new family. I can see everyone supporting me. I am feeling very strong with my fans. If they support me, I will give my everything, every game. It is very important."
