OFFICIAL: Fred completes United switch

United announced that a €50million agreement was in place but the Brazilian has now officially joined the Manchester club on Thursday afternoon after obtaining international clearance and a work permit.

In an exclusive interview with the club's video channel, 'MUTV', Fred spoke of his determination to make history at Old Trafford.

"I’m really happy,” he said. I’m so happy to be here and to have the opportunity to play for this club. It’s a huge club with great history and it’s a real honour to perform for United. I’m just so happy to have completed the transfer and now look forward to playing for the club.

Manchester United, as I say, is a huge club. When I was young, it was a name I used to hear and it was a name I used to see on computer games and I used to play with the team. For me, Manchester United means greatness.

”At United, I’m looking to win titles, alongside my new team-mates and my new manager, win matches with the club and make history by achieving great things together.”
