Man Utd sign 20-year-old Bordeaux talent Gabriel Obertan for four years
Manchester United coach Sir Alex Ferguson has snapped up Bordeaux talent Gabriel Obertan on a four-year contract.
As foxsports.com.au's Rumour Mill first revealed several days before the deal was signed, Obertan, 20, who can play in several attacking positions, became United's third signing of the summer having been tracked by Ferguson for some time.
"Gabriel is a player we have tracked for a few years now, but because of his educational programme our efforts to get him here have always been delayed," Ferguson said.
"We are delighted to get him now as he is an exciting prospect. We like to get young players and develop them, and we will see that in Gabriel over the next two years."
"I am very happy to join Manchester United," Paris-born Obertan said.
"This is a big opportunity for me to play at such a great club. I am very excited to be here and I look forward to proving what I can do."
Obertan made his debut for Bordeaux in 2006 and made sporadic appearances last season as the southwestern side won the league title, while he also spent part of the campaign on loan at Lorient.
