South Korea's Park Ji-sung holds a Manchester United shirt after signing with Manchester United at Old Trafford, Manchester, north England, July 14, 2005.
Ferguson believes Park could also swap flanks with Cristiano Ronaldo but added: "The games he impressed me most with PSV were when he played on the left-hand side and came infield so I will start with him there to begin with and see how he develops.

"But Guus Hiddink said to me that he is improving every day so it's a great option for me. He is quick, has fantastic energy and is good in the air so the options are varied.

"He's a very mobile player and very quick. He has fantastic energy and to get players with that quality with the speed of the game is a real asset."

IMPRESSIVE PARK

Park was watched about 20 times by United representatives last season and clinched a move when impressing Ferguson by helping PSV reach the Champions League semi-finals.

Now at Old Trafford, the South Korean international hopes to go even further in Europe's premier competition.

Park said on Thursday: "I hope I can lead the team to win the Champions League and the Premier League. I am confident that I can play in any position where I am needed.

"A lot of Korean fans believe Manchester United are one of the best teams in the world and they have shown a lot of interest in me signing for the club.
