After several weeks of negotiations with Chelsea, the Reds announced his arrival in early-July in a deal worth £55million, potentially rising to £60m.
Despite the success of Christian Eriksen's and Casemiro's link-up play in 2022/23, United knew they needed to inject fresh energy into their midfield.
