The struggling English Premier League club, Manchester United have booked medical tests for Lecce defender Patrick Dorgu who plays as a left back on Thursday. Manchester United spent the past few weeks chasing Dorgu and saw two bids rejected for the Denmark international, with Lecce publicly voicing their determination to keep the 20-year-old.
However, a third bid has seemingly wrapped up negotiations, with Fabrizio Romano revealing United will pay €30m plus €5m add-ons to bring Dorgu to Old Trafford this month.
“Manchester United have booked medical tests for Patrick Dorgu on Thursday, plan confirmed.
“Verbal agreement reached yesterday as reported for €30m plus €5m add-ons.
“He’s gonna fly to Manchester with his agents to complete the move,” Romano confirmed.
The Denmark international is expected to sign a long-term contract with Manchester United. The 20-year-old left-back wanted to bolster the left-back position in which United have struggled horribly with inj-ries in recent years. Luke Shaw has been sidelined since November, while Dutch international Tyrell Malacia is slowly looking to rebuild his match fitness after over a year on the sidelines.
