Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solksjaer has hailed the arrival of Harry Maguire from Leicester City.
The Red Devils on Monday announced the signing of Maguire, after paying a world-record £80million fee.
The 26-year-old has signed a six-year contract with the option of a further year at Old Trafford.
Solskjaer told the club’s official website: “Harry is one of the best centre-backs in the game today and I am delighted we have secured his signature.
“He is a great reader of the game and has a strong presence on the pitch, with the ability to remain calm under pressure – coupled with his composure on the ball and a huge presence in both boxes – I can see he will fit well into this group both on and off the pitch.
”He has a great personality and is a fantastic addition to the club.
“I would like to welcome Harry to Manchester United and we are looking forward to working with him as we prepare for the new season.”
