Frenkie de Jong is said to be close to signing for Manchester United as the Barcelona star has reportedly 'given the green light' to a deal with the Premier League giants.
United have been long-term admirers of the Holland international and identified him as a primary target for the summer transfer window - which opened on June 10.
De Jong was reportedly waiting to see the offers tabled by Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City before progressing any further with United.
However, Barcelona's price tag of 'at least €80m (£68m)' deterred the European giants from entering the transfer race, according to Sport.
