Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes was all smiles as he headed to Manchester ahead of a medical at Old Trafford.
Sportsmail revealed that Manchester United and Sporting Lisbon agreed a deal which could be worth almost £68MILLION after initial fee of £46.6m.
Fernandes looked to be on his way to England on Tuesday night with his friend Carolina Deslandes posting a photo of the pair in a lift with a plane emoji onto her Instagram story.
United and Sporting have been at loggerheads but made a breakthrough in negotiations on Tuesday with just three days of the January transfer window remaining.
The Red Devils will pay an initial fee of £46.6m and the deal includes add-ons of £8.5m based on Fernandes’ appearances for United and the club qualifying for the Champions League.
United could also pay Sporting up to £12.7m more depending on the player hitting less attainable targets.
