The Netherlands international, 22, has put pen to paper on a four-year deal at Old Trafford, taking him through to the summer of 2026. The deal also features the option of an additional year.

Malacia has become the first signing of the Erik ten Hag era and United supporters will now be hoping that further additions will swiftly follow.
