Anderson Information :
Brazilian Anderson (known to his mum as Anderson Luís de Abreu Oliveira) has been granted a work permit by the Home Office to allow him to play for champions Manchester United. The initial application for his work permit was rejected because he had not played in 75% of Brazil's internationals over the last two years.

However, United being the clever sods that they are, agreed a deal with Porto for the 19-year-old midfielder in early June, won their appeal to let him play. United told a six-man panel that only Anderson's youth had prevented him from meeting the set criteria whilst arguing that the player will bring exceptional talent to the Premier League.

Anderson made his debut for Brazil in their 2-0 Copa America defeat to Mexico on Wednesday.

Anderson said earlier this week: "To join Manchester United at 19 is incredible. Everything will be different in England - I know that - but I am certain I will adjust quickly to life in England. I am proud - and my family is also. For me, everything is new, it's a dream come true."

His move to United was announced at the same time as Sporting Lisbon youngster Nani, who as a Portuguese citizen has no work permit problems. [Mof Gimmers]
