"Manchester United is delighted to announce that Paul Pogba has completed his transfer from Juventus.

The 23-year-old French midfielder has signed a five-year contract at Old Trafford, with the option to extend for a further year.

Pogba, who has been capped 30 times by France, joins United from Juventus, where he won four consecutive Serie A titles and the Coppa Italia.

He is United's third signing of the summer, following the arrivals of Eric Bailly and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Pogba said: 'I am thrilled to join Manchester United. It is a club with a lot of history and a big following. I am looking forward to playing for this team and to winning trophies.

'I am excited to work with José Mourinho and the other players. I am ready to give my best and to help the team achieve its goals.'

Executive Vice-Chairman Ed Woodward added: 'We are delighted to welcome Paul to Manchester United. He is one of the most talented and exciting players in the world, and we are thrilled that he has chosen to join us.

'Paul's arrival is a significant moment for the club and we are confident that he will be a key player for us in the years to come.'

Pogba will wear the number 6 shirt at United and will be available for selection for the club's opening Premier League match against Bournemouth on August 15."
