Done United deal with new manager?

Emerging reports claim that English Premier League outfit Manchester United are close to sealing a deal for their next manager after agreeing on a compensation fee.

The Red Devils parted ways with former manager Jose Mourinho in December last year and have since been in search of a new manager ahead of next season.

Former United player Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was therefore brought in to come take charge as interim boss until a new manager can be found in the summer window.
