Manchester United midfielder Youri Tielemans has admitted he did not expect to leave Aston Villa this summer, despite completing a £35m move to Old Trafford. In his first extended interview since the transfer, the Belgian said the switch was a dream and the third time he had tried to join United, making the move third time lucky. Tielemans also expressed gratitude to Villa, saying he owes the club the world, but made clear he believes United are a bigger club. The 27-year-old's surprise at the transfer comes after a summer in which he had been linked with several clubs before United secured his signature.
