Manchester United players have given their assessment of the side's new player, Fred.
The highly-rated midfielder made the move to Man United from FC Shakhtar Donetsk for a reported £52m plus bonuses, with Serbian player Nemanja Matic of the belief that the pair can form a productive partnership for next season.
The two spoke following Brazil's 2-0 victory over Serbia in the World Cup.
Fred was an unused substitute but the pair still caught up after the Group E clash.
"I spoke to him after the game, he is a great player, he will bring quality to our team," said Matic via the Mirror.

The 29-year-old was then asked whether the two could work together next season and he replied: "We will see. I think we'll understand each other very well."
Matic is not the only Man United player looking forward to working together with Fred. England international Marcus Rashford said earlier this month via the Metro: "Yeah. I've seen some clips of him in the Champions League and he's definitely exciting."
The acquisition of Fred has Man United supporters excite, too.
They hope he can add some much need stability to the club, as the Red Devils look to build on a trophyless campaign last season.

Hopefully Jose Mourinho's third year will bring more success to the side.
