Matthijs de Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui have joined Manchester United from Bayern Munich; Netherlands international centre-back De Light moves to Old Trafford in a deal worth €50m (£42.7m), with an initial €45m (£38.4m) plus €5m (£4.3m) in add-ons

Both will be available for the opening match of the season.

The deal which sees De Ligt head to Old Trafford is worth €45m (£38.5m) with a potential further €5m (£4.2m) in add-ons.

United view it as an attractive fee for a young but extremely experienced and high-quality centre-back, who has enjoyed success everywhere he has played.

Mazraoui is viewed at the club as a young, versatile and dynamic full-back - strong defensively and going forward on the left or right.

The simultaneous arrival of De Ligt makes it four major signings for United completed before the start of the season, significantly strengthening the squad and addressing priority positions.
