David de Gea has joined Manchester United on a five-year contract after the English champions confirmed they had reached an agreement with Spanish side Atletico Madrid for the transfer of the goalkeeper yesterday.
The 20-year-old passed a medical this week, having become a European Championship winner with Spain Under-21s last week. He now has the responsibility of succeeding Edwin van der Sar as United's new number one following the Dutchman's retirement.
