Three-year contract agreed: Manchester United announce deal for "talented defender" is done and dusted

By

Manchester United have announced that another transfer has been completed before the end of the summer transfer window.

Young defender Tyler Blackett has left the club on a permanent basis to join Reading and will be working under former Manchester United defender Jaap Stam at the Madejski Stadium.

The Dutchman was full of praise for the 22-year-old after the transfer was completed.

He described him as a "talented defender" who can play in a number of different positions in Reading's defensive department.

"As we know, Tyler is a talented defender who has played for United's first team," Stam told Reading's official website.

"He can play as a left-back or a left-sided centre-back; he has got great potential in the sense that he is quick and athletic, defensively he is strong and he is good at set-pieces.

"As a defender he can go and play high up the pitch as well, and that is what we need in the squad."
