Manchester United are on the verge of signing Inter Milan goalkeeper Andre Onana with a fee now agreed between the two clubs, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
United are in the market for a new first-choice goalkeeper after allowing David de Gea to leave Old Trafford last month at the end of his contract.
United manager Erik ten Hag has set his sights on Inter Milan goalkeeper Onana, 27, who played a key role in his side reaching the Champions League final last season.
United are currently in negotiations with Inter over a deal for the Cameroon international and a fee has now been agreed, according to Romano.

"Manchester United are now closing in on Andre Onana deal as final verbal proposal has been made during talks today," tweeted Romano.
"Understand it’s €50m (£42.7m) fee plus €5m (£4.2m) add ons. Structure of add ons being discussed then… done deal.
"It's imminent, as expected."
Onana 'agrees terms' with United
Italian outlet Sport Mediaset, via Sport Witness, claim Onana has already agreed personal terms with United ahead of a move to Old Trafford.
It is claimed that Onana is set to sign a five-year deal worth €7m (£5.9m) a year.
If those figures are accurate, Onana will be paid around £110,000 per week - less than a third of what De Gea earned weekly in his final contract in Manchester.
Asked about Onana's future at a press conference on Wednesday, Inter Milan boss Simone Inzaghi replied: "He's an Inter player, tomorrow [Thursday] he'll be among the players called up for pre-season.
"We know the transfer window is unpredictable and that all Italian clubs have to sell before they can buy.
"We know there’s this risk [that he leaves] but at the same time, I'm calm about it all because the club and the owners have reassured me that this year we'll have a competitive Inter."
