Manchester United have completed the signing of Matteo Darmian from Torino for an undisclosed fee.

The 25-year-old full-back has signed a four-year contract with the Red Devils with an option for a further one year.

Darmian said: “It is a dream come true to be joining Manchester United. I have loved the time that I have spent at Torino and I would like to thank the club and the fans for everything they have done for me. I am sure they can understand when the opportunity to join the biggest club in world came along it was something I had to do.
“To work with Louis van Gaal, a manager that has achieved so much in football is such an exciting prospect.”
Darmian made his Serie A debut as an AC Milan player at age 17 in 2006 and has since featured for Padova and Palermo.
