According to Sky sources, Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin is set to complete a move to Manchester United.
It proved to be a hectic Sunday for the Old Trafford club with
Bastian Schweinsteiger flying into Manchester for a medical and
striker Robin van Persie heading the other way, arriving in Istanbul ahead of his proposed transfer to Fenerbahce.
And late on Sunday night it was reported the 25-year-old
Schneiderlin was also having a medical at United's Carrington
training HQ.
Saints boss Ronald Koeman confirmed last week there had been
no further bids for the French midfielder since United had an initial approach rejected last month.
Some reports over the weekend suggested United's interest in
Schneiderlin would cool on the back of the impending arrival of
World Cup winner Schweinsteiger, but on Saturday afternoon Sky sources reported the Southampton player remained firmly on manager Louis van Gaal's radar.
Schneiderlin now looks set to link up with the German midfielder on United's pre-season tour of the United States. Van Gaal and his squad fly to Seattle on Monday afternoon.
