Manchester United announced the signing of Memphis Depay yesterday and it seems highly likely that they will sign another attacker sooner rather than later.
The Red Devils have been linked with Brazilian star Roberto Firmino for the past few months and according to latest reports, the Samba sensation will be joining Man United.
Firmino plays as an attacking midfielder for German club Hoffenheim and has been a regular scorer and creator of goals for the past two seasons. His brilliant performances earned him a deserved call up from the national side and Firmino has traveled to Chile to take part in the Copa America.
As per Independent, Manchester United have agreed £13.1m price with German club to seal Firmino deal. The same fee is quoted by other sources like Talksport and Metro as well.
Daily Star though report a £20m value for the player but claim that he is due to have a medical at Manchester United as confirmed by Brazilian journalist Jose Elias.
Elias tweeted that Firmino will have medical examinations with Man United which confirms that United have agreed terms with the attacking midfield star as well as medical is the next step.
With Firmino’s addition, it will be intriguing to see where Van Gaal will play him in the Untied attack as they already have some top names in the squad.
The Brazilian has mainly played behind the striker for Hoffenheim and that is his preferred position.
