Report: Manchester United close to Ezequiel Garay signing

Manchester United are reportedly closing in on a deal for Benfica defender Ezequiel Garay.

The Argentine centre-back has been linked with a move to Old Trafford for several months and the two clubs have agreed a deal for the switch, according to Portuguese newspaper Record.

The report claims that Garay has already been property searching in Manchester, although a fee between the two clubs has yet to be revealed.

United have already added to their defensive ranks this summer with a deal for Uruguay Under-20 right-back Guillermo Varela completed earlier this month.

Garay made 41 appearances for the Lisbon outfit last season.
