Manchester United have completed the signing of Wales international goalkeeper Karl Darlow on a two-year deal.
The 35-year-old joins the club on a free transfer from Leeds United where he spent the last three seasons, including featuring 22 times for the Whites in the Premier League last season.
Darlow is likely to become the backup to Senne Lammens in the Red Devils' pecking order, a move that also opens the door for Altay Bayindir to leave the club with rumours of a return to Turkey.
"I am extremely proud to sign for Manchester United," Darlow said on his arrival. "I’m joining an excellent group of goalkeepers and I’m really looking forward to all pushing each other to ensure that we maintain the highest standards, which this club demands.
"This is a really special opportunity; everyone can see what an exciting time it is for the club and I cannot wait to play my part in supporting my team-mates and helping to drive the group forwards."
Darlow becomes United's second signing of the summer after Andrey Santos with Youri Tielemans expected to be the next arrival.
