Man Utd transfer news LIVE – £20m move close, Bayern swap, Chelsea green light

Manchester United are hoping to have a busy last few days of the summer transfer window. Erik ten Hag is close to adding a new signing to his squad, while several stars could be on their way.

United have made four signings so far this summer, spending almost £180million in the process. A fifth arrival is almost certain, as a new goalkeeper will come in once Dean Henderson’s move to Crystal Palace is complete.

Ten Hag knows he will likely have to sell before he can make any more permanent signings. He could therefore look to sign players on loan, with a left-back high on his agenda following the injury to Luke Shaw.

Donny van de Beek and Eric Bailly are among those who could leave, while reports over Harry Maguire’s future have surfaced again. But clubs are in a race against time to complete deals, with the window shutting at 11pm on Friday.

Chelsea green light

Chelsea are open to letting Marc Cucurella join Manchester United on loan.

Fabrizio Romano says the Blues would be willing to facilitate a move to their rivals.

However, the deal must be on Chelsea’s terms regarding a loan fee and wages.

Cucurella is one of three left-back options United are looking at.

Bayern swap deal

Bayern Munich and Manchester United could strike a swap deal in the coming days.

Bayern are keen on Scott McTominay, while United are interested in Ryan Gravenberch.

Sport Bild claims that loan moves for both players have been discussed.

McTominay and Gravenberch are yet to start for their respective clubs this season.

£20m deal close

Dean Henderson is on the brink of a move to Crystal Palace.

The Mail says the goalkeeper will join the Eagles on an initial £15m deal, with a further £5m in add-ons.

United will have a sell-on clause for Henderson included in the deal.

It was reported that Henderson underwent a medical on Sunday and a deal now looks to be imminent.
