United have agreed personal terms to sign 27-year-old – Journalist claims

Journalist Duncan Castles is claiming that the Red Devils have communicated with Alex Sandro already over a move to Old Trafford.

The Brazilian has been linked with a move to Manchester United for over a year now and the odds are now looking like a transfer deal could finally be completed.

Reports from last month claimed United had already personal terms with Sandro and Castles is saying those claims are true indeed.

“Juventus don’t actively want to sell Alex Sandro but they are prepared to sell the player because they see the price is so high that they can cash in,” Castles told the Transfer Window podcast.

“Manchester United have agreed personal terms in advance with Alex Sandro, he’s not particularly well paid at Juventus so it’s been easy to say ‘we’ll double your salary if you come to us’ and push for the move.

“On top of United’s interest they now have interest from Paris St-Germain, because they are also desperate for a top-quality left-back. They’ve also been discussing terms with Sandro, also prepared to pay more.”
