Manchester United hosts special visit for Shaheen Afridi at Old Trafford

Shaheen Shah Afridi, Pakistan's premier pace bowler, is currently enjoying a break in the United Kingdom, taking a well-deserved pause after a gruelling cricket season. 

Afridi, who has recently faced a demanding schedule on the field, uses this time to recharge and unwind.

During his stay, Afridi had the opportunity to visit Old Trafford, the iconic home of Manchester United, renowned for its rich history and legendary status in the football world. 

What seemed like an impromptu visit turned out to be a thoughtfully arranged event by the football club.

At Old Trafford, Afridi was warmly welcomed and was seen in the dugout of the famous stadium, where he posed with a personalized Manchester United jersey. The jersey, bearing his name "Afridi", and the legendary No. 10—worn by football greats like David Beckham, Ruud van Nistelrooy, and Wayne Rooney—emphasized the special nature of the visit. 

Manchester United recently shared photos of Afridi on their social media platform, exploring the stadium while wearing the team's kit.

The club captioned the image with "The eagle has landed", accompanied by an eagle emoji, celebrating the special moment and adding a touch of excitement to the visit.

This exclusive gesture highlighted Manchester United's appreciation for the cricket star and made the occasion memorable for both Afridi and his fans.
