Target acquired: Alex Ferguson has signed Marnick
Vermijlwho can play all across all positions in the Manchester
United defence
Reports in Belgium have confirmed Manchester United
have signed 18-year-old defender Marnick Vermijl from
Standard Liege.
Vermijl is a versatile defender who can play all across the
backline but is predominantly a right back.
He is expected to join up with Manchester United in time for the
start of the 2010/11 season and will join Sir Alex Ferguson’s first
team squad.
Scouts from the Premier League champions spotted
Vermijl, despite the fact he has never played a first team game for
the Belgian side.
Vermijl joins Ritchie De Laet as the second Belgian defender at
Manchester United.
