United completed the signings of De Ligt and Mazraoui from Bayern Munich earlier this week. The two defenders joined the club for a total of €70m (£60m/$77m), and De Ligt appears to be extremely happy in the photos from his unveiling, which were posted by Molenaar.

Molenaar shared on Instagram: “Manchester touch down. Thank you to everyone who has made us feel so loved and welcomed.”

She posted a series of photos and videos showing her and De Ligt unable to keep their hands off each other.

Despite De Ligt being considered a potential future United captain due to his excellent English, two club legends, Paul Scholes and Rio Ferdinand, have voiced concerns about the 25-year-old’s signing.

United secured a win against Fulham on Friday, with De Ligt making a cameo appearance. He will be aiming for a full debut against Brighton next weekend.
