Shaw makes £27m move to United

Luke Shaw has become the most expensive teenage footballer in history after he completed his £27m move to Manchester United.

Shaw, 18, passed a medical at the club’s Carrington training ground on Thursday before yesterday signing a four-year contract, with the option of another year.

Shaw established himself as one of the hottest prospects in world football after coming through Southampton’s fabled academy, attracting admiring glances from many, including boyhood club Chelsea. Despite not turning 19 until July 12, the left-back has already racked up 67 appearances for Saints and three England caps.
