Manchester United FC transfer news: Fred arrives at club's training ground to finalise £52m move

Brazilian midfielder Fred has arrived at Manchester United's training ground to finalise his move to the club.

The Shakhtar Donetsk star is undergoing a medical at Carrington after the Ukrainian club accepted an offer worth around £52million from United.

Fred was part of the Brazil squad which played Croatia in a pre-World Cup friendly at Anfield on Sunday.

He came on as a second-half substitute in the 2-1 win for Brazil and was granted permission to stay in the north west to complete his move to United on Monday.

The rest of the Brazil squad have returned to London, where they have set up base at Tottenham’s training ground for kick off their preparations for Russia.
