Manchester United have reportedly reached a pre-contract agreement for the services of Benfica's in-demand centre-back Victor Lindelof.
The 22-year-old has been linked with a switch to Jose Mourinho's side for some time, with United thought to be prepared to meet his €30m (£25.7m) release clause.
According to Tutto Mercato Web, the two clubs have now come to a pre-contract agreement over the Swedish international and he will complete a switch to Old Trafford this summer.
The news comes after reports in recent days that Serie A giants Roma were planning to hijack the deal, while Paris Saint-Germain had also been credited with an interest.
Lindelof has made 33 appearances for the Primeira Liga side since stepping up to the first team in 2013.
