Nice to see that not only are these signings young and talented, but they actually want to work hard for the team...well, at least Anderson does.
Anderson revels in United move
Anderson insists his dreams have come true after Manchester United struck a deal with Porto for his services.
The 19-year-old Brazilian will join United subject to medicals and a work-permit - and although he does not qualify automatically for a permit under UK rules, he is almost certain to gain the required permissions on appeal.
Anderson has long been tracked by Chelsea - who have been watching him closely for over two years, but United have swooped to secure his signature along with Nani of Sporting Lisbon.
Both players are rated amongst the best in the world for their ages and Anderson admits he cannot wait to link-up with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney.
"Manchester is the club of my dreams," stated Anderson to Gestifute.
"Gremio was my first club, but soon I followed to Porto but it still has a big place in my heart, it is a club which is very important in my life - but the fact is I have dreamed of playing for Manchester and now that is realised."
Anderson is arriving in a deal worth more than £15 million, but he insists he does not want to think about a fee - only about his future at Old Trafford.
"I know my value, in Manchester I will carry on the work that have developed with Porto, but I want to get better and realise my dreams," he said.
"I am prepared for everything - my motivation is great and the fact you can be in the same team as a great player as Cristiano Ronaldo as well as Rooney and many others, and to be trained by Alex Ferguson is just something that you could only imagine - but now I will realise this.
"What can I say, this is the biggest dream in the world!"
