Manchester United have completed the signing of Angel Di Maria for a British transfer record of £59.7million.

The Argentine completed the switch from Real Madrid signing a five-year contract with the English club.

Di Maria said that he would only have Real Madrid for Manchester United.

"I am absolutely delighted to be joining Manchester United. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in Spain and there were a lot of clubs interested in me, but United is the only club that I would have left Real Madrid for," the 26-year old told the club's website.

"Louis van Gaal is a fantastic coach with a proven track record of success and I am impressed by the vision and determination everyone has to get this club back to the top – where it belongs. I now just cannot wait to get started."

Louis van Gaal said: "Angel is a world-class midfielder but most importantly he is a team player. There is no doubting his immense natural talent.

"He is a tremendously fast and incisive left-footed player who puts fear into the most accomplished defence. His dribbling skills and his ability to take on and beat opponents are a joy to watch. He is an excellent addition to the team."

He is expected to make his debut for United this weekend in their Premier League game against Burnley.
