Manchester United have confirmed the signing of youth player Aliou Traore.
Sources told ESPN FC in July that France under-17 midfielder Traore would join from Sarcelles and the club have now confirmed the deal.
"Traore is a boy we've been looking at for a while," United U18s coach Kieran McKenna told MUTV recently. "He is a really powerful midfielder who likes to run box to box. He is very strong technically and is improving all the time.
"He's a nice man and his English is improving. He's settling in well with the boys and has taken to the club really well."
