Everton striker Wayne Rooney has signed a three-and-a-half-year deal with Major League Soccer club DC United.
"When I visited earlier this summer I was really impressed with everyone I met connected with the club, and of course the new Audi Field".
Currently, with the Everton Football Club, Rooney's deal is reportedly expected to be worth approximately $17 million and his contract would be offered until the end of 2020.
"Everton and Wayne Rooney have reached an agreement for the player to join MLS side DC United on a permanent transfer", said a club statement.
Rooney could start training with his new team by the end of this week, according to the Post, which reported that he has already secured his US visa and work permit.
"Now I can't wait to get on the pitch in a United shirt and join my new team-mates to bring success to this club".
There is no transfer fee but it is understood DC United have agreed a compensation package with the Toffees.

"I think it's the right move for him", Beckham said.
Rooney, who when he re-signed for the Toffees nearly a year ago admitted he had been wearing Everton pyjamas with his children, scored 11 goals in 40 appearances last season following his return from Old Trafford.
Rooney is expected in Washington this week to finalise terms ahead of making the move, which will see him become the second high profile signing in the league this season.
Rooney, fifth on United's all-time list of appearance-makers, also won the Champions League, Europa League, FA Cup and three League Cups during 13 seasons at United.
