Soccer-Man United confirm signing of Ibrahimovic

LONDON, July 1 (Reuters) - Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has completed his move to Manchester United (NYSE: MANU - news) , the Premier League club said on Friday.

The former Paris St Germain player had revealed on social media on Thursday that he was Old Trafford-bound, but United had not confirmed the signing.

"Zlatan needs no introduction. The statistics speak for themselves," new United manager Jose Mourinho said in a club statement.

"Ibra is one of the best strikers in the world and a player who always gives 100 percent."

Details of the 34-year-old's contract were not disclosed.
