Manchester United have announced the signing of highly-rated youngster Enzo Kana-Biyik. The French forward, 18, has put pen-to-paper on a contract at Old Trafford after the Red Devils won the race to sign the Le Havre wonderkid back in April. As Kana-Biyik was out of contract with the Ligue 1 outfit, it means he joins United on a free transfer and is eligible for a professional deal having turned 18 in January. Last season, the France youth international scored nine goals in 18 appearances for Le Havre's Under-19s team. Furthermore, he was named on the bench for two senior matches - the league meeting with Lille as well as the cup tie against Stade Briochin - but did not make an appearance in either. United fans will have to wait a while to see the striker in action as Kana-Biyik has been immediately loaned out to Lausanne-Sport in Switzerland to aid his first-team development. “Manchester United have completed the signing of exciting young forward Enzo Kana-Biyik,” a statement reads. “Following the signing of his contract, the emerging talent has secured a loan switch to Swiss Super League side, Lausanne-Sport. “Everyone at United would like to welcome Enzo to the club and wish him the very best of luck for his loan.” Kana-Biyik becomes the third player to arrive at United this summer, following the £62.5m addition of Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolves and the signing of Diego Leon. More deals are expected before the transfer window closes as Brentford forward Bryan Mbeumo favours a move to Old Trafford having been linked with moves to Tottenham, Arsenal and Newcastle.
