MANCHESTER UNITED have finally made a breakthrough in the transfer market – with full-back Tyrell Malacia set to become their first signing of the summer on Monday.
The 22-year-old Feyenoord defender jetted into the North West on Sunday and went through the first stages of his medical.
And should it all go to plan he will put the finishing touches to his move – which will cost the Red Devils an initial £13 million.
United swooped for Malacia last week just when he looked destined to join French side Lyon.
Initially he is likely to provide competition for Luke Shaw – putting a big question mark over the future of Alex Telles.
The Brazilian has indicated he will look for a move – possibly on loan – with former club Porto among the options.
