Memphis Depay will arrive to Manchester United with huge ambitions for himself.

"I believe I can be one of the best players in the world," Depay said.

Louis van Gaal compared Depay to Lionel Messi as a player who scores goals from the wing, but his physical profile is more reminiscent of Cristiano Ronaldo.

"I heard people compare me to Cristiano Ronaldo," he told Goal at the launch of the Under Armour Speedform boot.

"It's great to hear other people say that but I'm still 21 and I hope one day I can reach the level of Cristiano Ronaldo.

"I'm the same player as him in style and he's a big hero for me. He scored so many goals and I have to fight to be the same."
