Pictures: Alex Telles in United kits and training gear

New Manchester United signing Alex Telles has been pictured wearing the club’s apparel for the first time.

United have released images of Telles from a photoshoot behind the scenes at Carrington.

Telles signed from Porto for a fee reported by BBC Sport to be £13.6 million rising to £15.1 million.

This fee is bargain for a player of his quality, and was possible due to the Brazilian’s expiring contract at Porto.

He has signed a five-year deal and instantly improves United’s options at left-back.

United will likely be looking to put Telles straight into the side to face Newcastle when club football resumes later this month.
