Manchester United defender Daley Blind is thrilled to see United sign Romelu Lukaku from Everton.

The Dutch defender believes that Lukaku is a great player and he has a great future at the club. The Belgian striker scored his first-ever United goal in the 2-1 friendly win over Real Salt Lake on Tuesday.

"He is a great signing, a great player and a great person as well, now that I have met him for a while," Blind told NBC Sports after the game.

"He works very hard, he is very eager to score goals and very eager to help his teammates and create chances.

"So I am very happy he scored his first goal and I think there are many more to come."
