Manchester United complete signing of teenage goalkeeper Matej Kovar
Kovar will join up with Kieran McKenna's Under-18s squad at Carrington

Manchester United have completed the signing of teenage Czech goalkeeper Matej Kovar, subject to international clearance.
Kovar joins from the Czech First League’s FC Slovacko and is a youth international, having won two caps with the Czech Republic’s Under-19s.
The 17-year-old becomes United’s second signing of the January transfer window following the more high-profile capture of Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal.
Kovar has signed professional terms with United and will join up with Kieran McKenna’s Under-18s squad.
United’s academy, overseen by former midfielder Nicky Butt, has handed out full-time contracts to several youth prospects recently.
Young midfielder Aliou Traoré put pen to paper on professional terms earlier this month, as did 17-year-old Spain youth international Arnau Puigmal.
Angel Gomes, the club’s reigning Young Player of the Year, was tied down to a senior deal in December alongside Aidan Barlow, another highly-rated local talent.
United are not expected to announce any further arrivals or departures on deadline day, despite Roma’s late interest in full back Daley Blind.
