On Friday, Sport Mediaset stated Manchester United are one step away from signing Inter Milan goalkeeper André Onana.
Gazzetta dello Sport report the 27-year-old is ‘already looking for an apartment’ in Manchester ahead of his impending move to Old Trafford.
Erik ten Hag knows the stopper well from their time at Ajax and the manager is keen to reunite with him at Manchester United.
The Red Devils have decided to meet the Serie A side’s demands after meeting Onana’s camp yesterday.
Having seen two offers [€45m and €50m with bonuses included] get rejected, the report adds Manchester United will make a new bid, which will ‘finally break the barrier of €50m’ in fixed fee.
It’s claimed both clubs think ‘all the pieces of the puzzle can fit together between Tuesday and Wednesday’. In other words, there could be a completion date of midweek.
Sky Italia state the stopper has met with Manchester United officials in the ‘last few hours’ to ‘finalise the details of his contract’.
Inter, for their part, are waiting for Ten Hag’s side to make a new offer to conclude Onana’s sale.
Inter will focus on signing the Cameroonian’s replacement after finalising his transfer to Manchester United.
