A PICTURE appearing to show Nemanja Matic wearing a new Manchester United training top has emerged.
SunSport told you earlier United were close to agreeing a £50million deal to sign the Chelsea midfielder. Reports have since emerged claiming Matic, 28, has undergone a medical at Carrington today.
And a photo of the Serbian wearing a United shirt has fuelled speculation his move is complete.
Matic wears the No31 top in the snap – formerly worn by Bastian Schweinsteiger.
He has already agreed terms to make the Old Trafford switch.
Matic sat out Chelsea’s pre-season tour of China and Singapore – alongside Diego Costa – in an attempt to seal his Stamford Bridge exit.
Jose Mourinho has been desperate to bring in a new defensive midfielder, with former Blues signing Matic a top target.
Matic joined Chelsea from Serbian club Kosice in 2009 for £1.5m.
He was sold to Benfica in 2011 and resigned by the Blues – under Mourinho – for £22m in 2014.
United are short of midfielders and may need to dip into the market for another player after Marouane Fellaini reportedly agreed terms to join Galatasaray.
