Manchester United have snapped up Dutch prospect Bjorn Hardley.

BN DeStem reports NAC Breda youngster Hardley has joined United.

The 16-year-old midfielder signed a three-year contract at Old Trafford on Sunday and will join the club's U18 side.

United will have to pay a training fee for the youngster, probably an amount close to €90,000.

Hardley is the second youngster to leave NAC Breda for a top club this summer. Mike van Beijnen made the surprising move to Barcelona last month.
