France international midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin signed for
Manchester United from English Premier League rivals Southampton on
Monday, the buying club announced.
The 25-year-old — who joined Southampton from French side Strasbourg
for just 1.5million euros (£1.2million) in 2008 — signed a four year
contract with United.
Schneiderlin has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford and it
had been reported United had a bid in the region of £20 million ($31.2
million, 28 million euros) rejected up to two weeks ago.
He is United’s second headline signing on Monday as German
international captain Bastian Schweinsteiger completed his transfer
earlier on Monday on a three year contract ending a glory-filled 17 year
stay at German champions Bayern Munich.
