The Uruguayan duo both completed moves to United on transfer deadline day.
Both are yet to be officially unveiled and pictured with the club’s colours, but they have been in communication with supporters on social media.
Pellistri used social media to thank fans for the messages of support he has received.
The 18-year-old joined from Penarol and will be assessed by the club’s coaches to see how ready he is for first team football.
Pellistri has been assigned United’s number 28 shirt.

Cavani sent a message to supporters on social media too, expressing how proud he is represent the club.
Cavani joined as a free agent after seven years at PSG.
He will be a big asset to United, especially with Anthony Martial and Odion Ighalo failing to score in the opening five games of the season.
Cavani has more than 300 career goals, and even at 33, he will become a vital player for the club.
