Manchester United are 'set to complete' the loan signing Sergio Reguilon from Tottenham, according to David Ornstein.
Erik ten Hag is on the hunt for a left-back following the injury to Luke Shaw, who suffered a muscular injury in training after his side's defeat at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
His injury is worse than feared as he faces a 'number of weeks' on the sidelines in a big blow to Ten Hag.

As a result, a host of left-backs have been linked with a move to Old Trafford, including Brentford's Rico Henry and Lyon Nicolas Tagliafico.
Not to mention Marc Cucurella, who played in Chelsea's Carabao Cup clash against AFC Wimbledon on Wednesday.
According to Ornstein, his appearance at Stamford Bridge in the competition has 'complicated' the situation.
Ten Hag is now pushing move for Spurs' Reguilon, who spent last season on loan at Atletico Madrid.
According to a recent update from Ornstein on The Athletic, the defender has been given permission to travel for a medical.
The 26-year-old joined the North London outfit in 2020 and played 27 league games during that season.
He made 25 appearances in the 2021/22 campaign, scoring two goals - before being 'banished' by Antonio Conte.
Reguilon featured in 11 league games at Atleti last season, having also played for Real Madrid and Sevilla in his career.
