Noam Emeran has confirmed his transfer to Manchester United.
After having impressed several of Europe’s elite clubs through his performances in the French youth system, the 16-year-old has finally secured his big move to the Theatre of Dreams.
The forward was pursued by the likes of Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain, but the Red Devils have successfully emerged on top to officially seal the deal for the young starlet.
While the actual figures remain unknown, previous reports had indicated that the Mancunian giants were to cough up £90,000 for the French wonderkid.

The deal was expected to be wrapped up by January, but it has taken until mid-February for all parties to sort out the details and finalise the transfer.
Now, the versatile teenager, who prefers to play on the left wing, is expected to hit the ground running immediately at Manchester United‘s youth academy, where he will certainly be eager to impress.
