"I'm buzzing to be here," Fletcher said.
"I've come to get some league experience and help improve the team.
"I'm looking forward to this weekend. Fleetwood are a good side and it will be a good test but with the quality we've got here, I'm sure we can do the business.
"Having trained with the lads [on Thursday] morning, I can see the quality that they bring to the club."
Fletcher, who has progressed through the Red Devils' academy, has been a regular goalscorer for United's U21s and had been hoping to make his first-team breakthrough under Louis van Gaal this season.
