The exciting ace, 23, has 28 goals and 21 assists in the last three seasons.
And the new No34 is sure to add a new dimension to United’s attacking play following Fernandes’ immediate impact earlier this year.
Van de Beek says he is looking forward to playing alongside the Portuguese playmaker, as well as United’s club-record signing Pogba.
And the Netherlands international has told United fans they can expect plenty of dynamism and hunger once he settles into the starting XI.
Van de Beek told United’s official website: “I was watching a lot of them [Pogba and Fernandes].
“There are a lot of good players in the midfield and I can’t wait to play with them.
“It will be really nice and I will enjoy playing with these kinds of football players.
“I am a midfielder that likes to go into the box – making runs, goals, assists.
“A lot of the time, I cover a lot of distance in games, this is also a thing that is a strength for me, to get into the box of the opponent.
“If you know me and the kind of player I am, and my style and everything, I think I can have a good combination with the club and players.
“If you look at the players the club has, they are young players, the same age like me and I cannot wait to play with them.”
