New Manchester United signing Victor Lindelof has revealed that manager Jose Mourinho made personal contact to convince him to move to Old Trafford.
The Sweden international became the Portuguese's first summer signing after joining from Benfica for £30.7million.
He was officially announced as a Manchester United player on Wednesday morning.
"We talked on the phone," Lindelof told Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet.
"He told me about the club and everything around it. He also talked about how he looks at me and why he wants me at the club.
"I've spoken to him. It was a good chat. It's very important for me to hear what he has to say.
"It feels great to know the coach wants you to finally be here. It makes me very happy."
