'This is a really special opportunity' - Darlow on Man Utd move

[Getty Images] Manchester United's latest signing Karl Darlow says he is "extremely proud" to sign for the club after leaving Leeds United on the expiry of his contract. The 35-year-old goalkeeper made 38 appearances for the Whites and was their first-choice keeper last season as Leeds retained their Premier League status. "I'm joining an excellent group of goalkeepers and I'm really looking forward to all pushing each other to ensure that we maintain the highest standards, which this club demands," Darlow said. "This is a really special opportunity. Everyone can see what an exciting time it is for the club and I cannot wait to play my part in supporting my team-mates and helping to drive the group forwards." Director of football Jason Wilcox added: "Karl has proven his ability to perform at the highest level. His work ethic and determined personality make him a really strong addition to our squad."
