Report: Manchester United edge closer to signing Pedro

Manchester United are on the verge of signing Barcelona winger Pedro, according to reports.

Louis van Gaal is reportedly set to lose Angel di Maria to Paris Saint-Germain, but it seems he has acted quickly to replace the Argentine star.

Pedro's future has been the subject of intense speculation this summer as looks for more first-team football, and the Daily Mail claims that United have agreed to meet his buy-out clause of £22m.

The Spaniard has taken his time before agreeing to the move, but it is now understood he is happy to complete the deal.

The 27-year-old scored 13 goals last season.
