Michael Owen has sealed his shock move to Manchester United.

The former Liverpool and Real Madrid striker completed a series of stringent medical tests on Friday evening and has signed a two-year deal with the Barclays Premier League champions.

Owen, 29, had earlier spent the day at United's Carrington training complex as the terms of his free transfer were thrashed out, after he lapsed out of contract with Newcastle at the end of last month.
