The Brazilian attacker has signed a deal at Old Trafford through until 2027 with the possibility of an additional year. He is now officially registered with the Premier League and could make his debut against Arsenal on Sunday.
‘This is an incredible moment in my career to be joining one of the most iconic clubs in the world,’ he said.
‘Playing under Erik ten Hag at Ajax was perfect for me and my development.
‘His style of football and coaching brings out the best in me, and I am excited by what he has told me about his plans and ambitions in Manchester.
‘My time at Ajax was fantastic and I will always be grateful for the trust they put in me, but now I am ready for the next challenge, and I can’t wait to join my new team-mates and play my part in bringing success to Manchester United.’
