Fred has completed his transfer from Shakhtar Donetsk to Manchester United after passing his medical, the midfielder agreeing a five-year contract at Old Trafford.
United confirmed they had reached an agreement with Shakhtar for the services of the Brazil international on June 5, with the deal reportedly worth £52million.
Two weeks later the 25-year-old has put pen to paper on a contract that will run until 2023, with the option to extend for a further year.
"Fred will complement our other midfielders' qualities, which we need; his creative brain and passing vision will give us another dimension to our game," Mourinho said.
"I am very happy he is joining our club and I believe our players know how important he can be in our team."
"This is the biggest club in the world and I am delighted to be a part of this amazing team," Fred said.
"To work with Jose Mourinho, who has won so many trophies in his time as a coach, is an opportunity not to be missed."
