Manchester United look set to seal the signing of Hoffeheim attacking midfielder Roberto Firmino ahead of the likes of Liverpool this summer.

The Red Devils have reportedly agreed a £13.1m fee with the Bundesliga club for the talented young Brazilian, who has really caught the eye in Germany in the last couple of seasons.

According to the Daily Star, the deal is now all but done and Firmino’s agent has confirmed that his client is on his way to the Premier League for next season.

This looks a bargain move for Louis van Gaal’s side, who need improvements in attacking midfield after some poor performances from Angel Di Maria and Adnan Januzaj in 2014/15.
