Manchester United have completed the signing of Argentina defender, Lisandro Martinez, from Ajax in a deal worth up to £57m.

According to the BBC, United manager, Erik ten Hag was keen to be reunited with the 24-year-old, who he signed for Ajax in 2019.

The Argentine joins the Old Trafford club on a five-year contract which keeps him at Manchester United until 2027, with the option of a further year.

“It’s an honour to join this great football club.

“I’ve worked so hard to get to this moment and, now that I’m here, I’m going to push myself even further,” Martinez said.

The centre-back is United’s third signing of the summer following the arrivals of Christian Eriksen on a free transfer and Dutch full-back Tyrell Malacia.
