Manchester United have finally sealed the signing of highly rated Welsh teenage sensation, Gabriele Biancheri.

Biancheri is moving to Old Trafford on scholar terms before he signs for the club as a professional in September.

According to The Mirror, the youngster joined the Red Devils from Cardiff City, having completed his medical in January.

The 16-year-old was expected to seal the transfer during the January transfer window but hitches arising from clearance from FIFA and paperwork delayed the switch.

Despite having yet to make a senior team appearance, it is understood several Premier League clubs were keen on securing Biancheri's services.

However, it was Man United who were fortunate to eventually land the forward's signature.

Biancheri's message after United move

The youngster has since broken the silence after his dream move to Man United, posting a message to his fans on social media.

The Welsh ace shared a message of himself with the caption:

"After more than 9 years, my time with Cardiff has come to an end."

He added:

"I’d like to thank all of my coaches for helping me become the player and person I am today and to all my teammates. I’ll forever be thankful for the opportunity I’ve had at this club."

The signing of the Welsh youth will certainly be of interest to Erik ten Hag, who is masterminding a massive rebuild project at the Theatre of Dreams.
