Dinamo Zagreb have completed the signing of Chilean striker Angelo Henriquez from Manchester United.

Henriquez spent last season on loan with the Croatian champions and enjoyed a prolific season, scoring 21 times during Dinamo's title-winning campaign.

The 21-year-old was part of Chile's Copa America-winning squad and was introduced as a substitute during the final against Argentina.

The forward was bought from Universidad de Chile in 2012 by Sir Alex Ferguson and scored once for United’s senior side during a pre-season friendly draw with AIK Fotboll in Stockholm. He also had loan spells with Wigan Athletic and Real Zaragoza before heading to Zagreb.
