Santos expressed his excitement about joining the club, stating that 'everything about Manchester United is special' and that it's an 'incredible feeling to join a club that some of my biggest idols have represented'.
He also praised Michael Carrick, saying he is the 'perfect coach' to help him take his game to the next level and achieve his dreams.
Santos was drawn to the club's ambitious nature and the strong squad, saying he 'cannot wait to fight together to compete for the biggest trophies'. He also acknowledged the club's excellent environment, which he believes will allow him to develop his skills further.
