Manchester United have secured the signature of 18-year-old winger Tynan Thompson from Tottenham in a deal valued at £4 million (just under $5.4 million), with an additional £4 million in potential add-ons.
The youngster is highly regarded within academy circles and is expected to be given first-team opportunities at Old Trafford, following an impressive stint in North London last season.
Thompson joined Tottenham's academy at the age of 12 and last season netted seven goals in seven matches in the UEFA Youth League, while also serving as an unused substitute on two occasions in the Champions League, as per the Manchester Evening News.
