Manucho ready to join Man Utd

Manucho believes he should have no problem securing a work permit as he looks to begin his Manchester United career. The Angolan international has been on loan at Panathinaikos for three months.

Manucho said: "The club is dealing with the work permit process. I have been asked to turn up on 1st July for pre-season.

"Since the end of the Greek league, I have been in contact with (United assistant manager Carlos) Queiroz and I know that things are going well.

"I am not thinking about wearing a shirt other than that of United. I am just thinking about playing in the UEFA Champions League next season."
