United are close to agreeing deal to sign 24-year-old star – Report
Jose Mourinho looks to be heading in the right direction in his mission to secure the signing of a new midfielder next month.
Manchester United have found themselves in a desperate position in the race for the Premier League title after consecutive draws to Leicester City and Burnley which have dented their already slim hopes.
With the Red Devils 15 points behind leaders Manchester City, Mourinho has been put under pressure to make an effort to improve his underperforming squad.
And as per reports, United are now closing in on a deal to sign Barcelona midfielder Andre Gomes by next month.
The 24-year-old, who joined the Catalan side in the summer of 2016, has struggled to make a name for himself at the Camp Nou.
Therefore, Barcelona have made Gomes available for sale and the Red Devils are in a favorable position to sign him.
Well-known football agent Jorge Mendes is reportedly playing a vital role in negotiations over the Portuguese midfielder’s potential move to Old Trafford.
