Youngster Samuel Lusale has said he feels "incredibly blessed" to have signed his first professional contract at Manchester United.

The Slovakian youth international, 17, joined United as a first-year scholar earlier this month, having made the switch from Crystal Palace.

United had been waiting on Premier League and FA approval for the deal to go through. Lusale, who is a right-winger, made seven appearances for Palace's Under-18s in the Under-18s Premier League last season, as well as appearing once in the FA Youth Cup.

Confirming he had put pen to paper on his first professional deal at Old Trafford on Instagram on Tuesday evening, Lusale said: "I'm incredibly blessed to have signed my first professional contract with Manchester United. "There's still much more work to be done, but it's a privilege to be part of such an amazing club.
