Manchester United have reportedly agreed terms with Barcelona for Frenkie de Jong - but there remains work to do if the Holland international is to link back up with Erik ten Hag.
De Jong is understood to be owed a substantial amount in deferred wages by cash-strapped Barcelona and the Dutchman will need convincing to leave the LaLiga giants. But United would surely not have pursued the 25-year-old all summer if they did not believe he was willing to move to Old Trafford, where he would work under his former Ajax boss Ten Hag.
Feyenoord left-back Tyrell Malacia has so far been the only summer arrival but a verbal agreement has been reached with Christian Eriksen and the arrival of Lisandro Martinez is edging closer. United are in advanced talks to sign the Argentina defender from Ajax, with a fee reported to have been agreed to sign a player that is keen on moving to Old Trafford.
