Manchester: Barcelona midfielder Thiago Alcantara will be a Manchester United player next week according to Spanish daily SPORT. They claim that the 22-year-old midfielder has already agreed a five year deal with United and that only a few loose ends need to be tied up before the deal is completed.
The paper reports Thiago will join Manchester United next week on a five year deal. Given the intensity and depth of the coverage surrounding Thiago's situation at Barcelona, it would be difficult for the player to remain at the club given the very public dissection of it.
If Barcelona wanted Thiago to stay at the club, they would be doing everything in their power to make the player realise just how important he is to the club and why leaving would be the wrong thing to do.
On Friday, David Moyes confirmed that United were looking to secure signings before the start of pre-season on July 13, so a Thiago deal being announced next week certainly coincides with that.
