Manchester United have agreed a five-year contract with Brazil midfielder Fred.
The £52million signing from Shakhtar Donetsk travelled to United’s Mayfair offices in London to complete the formalities of his move.
The final announcement could still be delayed by the transfer of international paperwork involving the Brazilian FA however.
Fred left Brazil’s team following Sunday’s win over Croatia at Anfield to have the first part of his medical and a look around the United’s training complex before undergoing club publicity photographs on Monday and heading to London with his agents Fabio Mello and Gilberto Silva.
