Andreas Pereira has been unveiled as a Lazio player as he completes his season-long loan move from Manchester United.
The 24-year-old Brazil midfielder had fallen further down the pecking order at Old Trafford following the summer arrival of Donny van de Beek.
And Pereira will spend the season in Serie A after joining Lazio initially on loan but with an option to make the move permanent for £24.5million.

He was reluctant to leave United but knew competition for midfield places would be more fierce than ever this season.
Since breaking into United’s first team back in 2015, Pereira has played 75 times and scored four goals.
He was a regular for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer during the first half of last season but saw his place taken by January arrival Bruno Fernandes.
Following the restart in June, Pereira managed just 36 minutes of Premier League football and was left on the bench during the UEFA Europa League final in Germany.
