Derby County have signed Manchester United striker James Wilson on loan for the rest of the season.
Rams boss Nigel Pearson confirmed an agreement was in place to sign the 20-year-old after their 0-0 Sky Bet Championship draw with Aston Villa on Saturday.
Wilson has scored four goals in 20 appearances for United and spent much of 2015-16 on loan with Brighton, where he hit the net five times in 28 games.
He faced a tough fight for playing time at Old Trafford, with United having signed Zlatan Ibrahimovic over the summer to add to their already impressive attacking options.
Pearson said: "We're delighted to have agreed to bring James Wilson in on a season-long loan.
"I hope that this loan deal will prove to be mutually beneficial for all parties and I would like to place on record our thanks to Manchester United for allowing James to join us. He is an energetic player who will add to our existing attacking options."
