Manchester United have signed Brazil midfielder Fred from Shakhtar Donestk for £47m.

The 25-year-old is Jose Mourinho's second signing this summer following Portuguese full-back Diogo Dalot's arrival at Old Trafford.

Fred, who is currently at the World Cup in Russia, has signed a five-year deal. He has scored 15 goals in 155 appearances for Ukrainian side Shakhtar after joining from Internacional in 2013.

Fred said: "This is the biggest club in the world and I am delighted to be a part of this amazing team," said Fred.

"To work with Jose Mourinho, who has won so many trophies in his time as a coach, is an opportunity not to be missed."
