Mata first of many new stars, says Moyes

David Moyes has promised the club-record capture of Juan Mata will be “the first of many” new arrivals at Manchester United this year.

The Premier League champions announced the €44.7m signing of the Spanish playmaker on Saturday in a deal which it is hoped might give United’s difficult campaign some impetus.

Talks are underway with striker Wayne Rooney to extend his contract, while there have also been reports of a bid for highly-rated Southampton left-back Luke Shaw as Moyes looks to put his stamp on the squad he inherited from Alex Ferguson.
