MANCHESTER UNITED have reached a verbal agreement to sign Noussair Mazraoui, according to reports.
The Bayern Munich right-back is understood to be edging closer to a move to Old Trafford.
However, his potential arrival is being held up by the departure of a current United player.
Foot Mercato report that United have struck an agreement with Bayern for the signing of Mazraoui.
The Morocco international has also already said yes to the deal, having seen a move to West Ham fall through last week.
He had looked destined to join the Hammers, only for the transfer to collapse after the club failed to reach an agreement on his agent’s fee.
West Ham are now pushing to sign Aaron Wan-Bissaka from United, the report adds, which is delaying Mazraoui’s arrival.
The two clubs have agreed a deal, with talks ongoing over personal terms.
Wan-Bissaka joined United from Crystal Palace for £50million back in 2019.
He has since made 190 appearances but entered the final year of his contract this summer.
Mazraoui has spent two seasons with Bayern after joining the German giants from Ajax in 2022.
He previously played under United boss Erik ten Hag in the Netherlands before his move.
The 26-year-old made 137 appearances under Ten Hag, winning six trophies including three Eredivisie titles.
He would become the Red Devils’ third signing of the summer if he completes a move to England.
United have already brought in Joshua Zirkzee and Leny Yoro ahead of next season.
