Sanches heading to Old Trafford
It’s thought that Manchester United are homing in on Benfica’s Renato Sanches as their first summer signing.
The youngster is thought to be valued at around £39million, and it is now thought that a deal is in place between the two clubs, despite Manchester City and Real Madrid both sniffing around the player too.
However, Old Trafford-bound Jose Mourinho and Sanches are both represented by super-agent Jorge Mendes which is reportedly set to swing the deal. It is thought former-Chelsea boss Mourinho will be put in full control of transfers at Old Trafford.
Sanches, under contract at Benfica until 2021, has enjoyed a breakthrough campaign this season.
He was handed his international debut for Portugal in March.
