The world cup winning star could join Louis Van Gaal’s squad over the next few days as the club has agreed a deal according to the latest reports. 

The Manchester Evening News notes:

Manchester United have agreed a deal to sign Bastian Schweinsteiger from Bayern Munich.

The German midfielder is set to join on a three-year deal for a fee believed to be around £5.75m.

Friday saw the club officially unveil Dutch star Memphis Depay and Louis Van Gaal confirmed Italian defender Matteo Darmian is due for a medical at the club meaning the Reds could have three new signings before they depart for their Summer tour of the US.
