Manchester United have confirmed that £25million signing Memphis Depay completed his medical at the club's Carrington training ground on Monday night.

The Dutch forward top scored in the Eredivisie with 22 goals as PSV Eindhoven won the title.

A statement on the Manchester United website read: "Memphis Depay has today completed his medical at Manchester United.

"The Club will now work towards finalising his registration when the international transfer window opens in June."

Speaking last week, the 21-year-old said he has a great relationship with Louis van Gaal.

"I have a good relationship with him," Depay said. "In the World Cup he trained very hard and that is what I like.

"I learned a lot from him. He is very strict and that is what I like. If I do something good he is going to tell you, and that's important, but also if you can do it better he is going to tell you that.

'I believe he can make me better. I am young and I want to be one of the best players in the world."
