Bebe eager to succeed

Bebe admits even he was surprised about his move to Manchester United but the striker is determined to take his chance at Old Trafford.
The Portuguese forward, 20, made the 7.4 million pounds move from Vitoria de Guimaraes just five weeks after he joined them from Estrela da Amadora.
And only a week after he first became aware of United's interest, Bebe signed for the Old Trafford club.
Bebe, speaking to reporters at Old Trafford here on Tuesday, said following in the footsteps of Portuguese stars Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani was also a big factor in the move.
"I feel good. It is an opportunity that has been given to me and now I have to grab it and work very hard," Bebe said.
"It was one week from hearing about interest to signing.
"I have always wanted to play in a foreign team either United or Chelsea but a team like Man United is a dream come true for any player.
"The Portuguese factor at Old Trafford was a motivation for me. There were very big names like Cristiano Ronaldo who has played here and is a very big player now. "
