Shinji Kagawa has returned to former side Borussia Dortmund, signing on a four-year deal.
The Bundesliga side announced the deal on Sunday afternoon, bringing the Japanese international's spell at Old Trafford to a close.
"The chance presented itself over the last few days to make the signing of Shinji Kagawa from Manchester United," Dortmund sporting director Michael Zorc said.
"Of course we chose to sign this quality player again."
"I said on the day of my departure that my story with Borussia Dortmund was not completed," Kagawa told Dortmund's official website.
"I wanted to realise my Premier League dream but now I'm happy to be back in Dortmund; in this great team, the unique environment. Dortmund is like a family.
"I am proud they have never forgotten me and I can belong again."
Kagawa was signed from Jurgen Klopp's side by Sir Alex Ferguson in 2012, and the midfielder scored a hat-trick in his debut season against Norwich.
But he failed to shine under David Moyes last season, with the Scot struggling to utilise the player to the best of his abilities.
And the writing seemed on the wall for Kagawa's time at United when Louis van Gaal revealed that the player was not interested in adapting to his philosophy.
The coach said: "Kagawa did not wish to fulfil my wishes, my philosophy when I played him in the United States.
"Kagawa was a No.10 at [Borussia] Dortmund but I want to try him at No. 6 and No. 8."

WATCH: Daley Blind spotted in Manchester ahead of expected £14m United move

Daley Blind’s move to United is edging closer after the star was pictured in Manchester this morning.

It appears Daley Blind’s move to United is edging closer after the star was pictured in Manchester this morning.
The 24 year-old Dutchman jetted in yesterday after the Reds agreed a fee of £14 million for the Dutch international.
He was last night pictured at the Bridgewater Hopsital in Hulme where it is understood he underwent a medical.
And he was this morning seen leaving The Lowry Hotel on the banks of the Irwell in Salford.
The hotel is where his likely new manager Louis Van Gaal, and teammate Luke Shaw, have based themselves as they settle into life in the city.

Blind played under Van Gaal for Holland at the World Cup this summer and can play either at left-back or in midfield.
Blind was accompanied by his girlfriend, the model and dancer Candy-Rae Fleur, as he left the hotel and jumped into a waiting car carrying a large amount of luggage.
It is believed he may now be heading back to his homeland to tie up loose ends on the proposed move from Ajax.
Fans will be hoping the move can be completed before tomorrow’s transfer deadline, with the club so far without a win in their first three games of the season.
United’s next fixture isn’t until September 14 when they take on QPR at Old Trafford.

Kagawa in talks with Borussia Dortmund

Jurgen Klopp's side are keen to take the Japan international on a season-long loan with a view to a permanent move after he was told he is not wanted at Old Trafford

By Stefan Doring and Martin Ernst
Borussia Dortmund are in talks to re-sign Manchester United forward Shinji Kagawa.
The Japan international was an integral part of the Dortmund side that won back-to-back Bundesliga titles, prompting a €21.4m million move to Old Trafford in 2012.
Kagawa struggled to acclimatise in his first season despite contributing towards United’s 20th league title, while injuries allied to a chronic loss of form and confidence saw him restricted to making just 30 appearances in all competitions under David Moyes last season.
After running the rule over his squad in pre-season and the early part of the Premier League campaign Louis van Gaal has deemed Kagawa, who is likely to have made his final United appearance in the embarrassing 4-0 defeat against MK Dons in the Capital One Cup on Tuesday, surplus to requirements.
United have already spent over €163.5m million in the transfer market this summer on Angel Di Maria, Ander Herrera and Luke Shaw and Goal understands they will make a renewed push to sign Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal as well as Ajax defender Daley Blind.
The Old Trafford giants are looking to trim their squad as a result of their record summer outlay and are willing to listen to offers for the likes of Kagawa and Javier Hernandez, while Danny Welbeck could also depart before the close of the window.
Dortmund, who on Thursday were drawn in the same Champions League group as Arsenal, are keen to take Kagawa on a season-long loan with a view to buy.
Jurgen Klopp’s side finished runners-up to Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga last season and lost key striker Robert Lewandowski to their fiercest rivals earlier this summer

MAAJABU:KUTANA NA MTOTO WA WIKI TATU MWENYE UWEZO WA KUJILISHA MWENYEWE...,PATA STORY KAMILI HAPA

At just 3 weeks old, baby Amara Chiedozie can hold her feeding bottle...and her mum, 20 year old student Onyi Chiedozie, claims she's been doing this since was just three days old. How is this even possible? Her mum explains;

‘When we were feeding, she started shaking, then she just grabbed the bottle. She was holding it by herself. We couldn’t believe it because babies don’t normally do it that young. I’m so shocked that I have been documenting it every day. It’s unbelievable.

"When she doesn’t want it she will push it away. She isn’t strong enough to throw it away, but she does push it, like she does with her dummy. If she is really hungry, she starts shaking. Then she will just grab the bottle as you give it to her.’ Continue...

Onyi, who is a single mother and lives in Essex, UK, says she makes sure she is always watching her daughter when she is feeding herself.

‘Sometimes I hold her or sometimes you can prop her up with a pillow and give her the bottle. I’m always watching her – I don’t let her out of my sight.’ she said

According to UK Daily Mail, Amara weighed 6lbs 3oz when she was born on August 3 at Queen’s Hospital in Romford. Onyi said her baby's progress astounded medical professionals.

‘Even nurses are really surprised. When my health support nurse came, she was shocked as well. She couldn’t believe that this could happen. Whenever we go to appointments, we take pictures of her doing it. The midwife and even the doctor we had an appointment with on Saturday were actually amazed. They couldn’t believe it.

Onyi, who also breastfeeds Amara regularly, said:

‘The breastfeeding is better now – it’s comfortable. It used to be painful and sore before but it’s good now. When she breastfeeds she is touching and holding on to me. It’s a really nice experience and way to bond.’ Babies are usually able to hold a bottle unaided from around six months.

Meanwhile there's a warning against letting babies feed themselves. Parents’ charity NCT warns;

‘If you give your baby a bottle, always hold the bottle and your baby whilst feeding. It’s not safe to leave babies to feed themselves or to prop up a bottle; if they choke they won’t be able to push the bottle away.
