Report: Manchester United sign Belgian teenager Indy Boonen

Man Utd 'sign Belgian wonderkid'

Manchester United have completed the signing of Belgian wonderkid Indy Boonen on a three-year contract, according to reports.

The midfielder, who was part of the youth set-up at Genk until he was released last summer, allegedly caught the Red Devils' attention when he played in a friendly against them in April 2013.

The 16-year-old is quoted by Belgian newspaper HLN as saying: "It's like in a dream. The training sessions are hard, but I don't feel the tiredness when I realise I have signed for Manchester United."

United have yet to confirm the deal.
