28-Year-Old Nemanja Matic Finally Join Their Premier League Rivals Manchester United For £40million From Chelsea.
Nemanja Matic has all but moved to Manchester United and is expected to be announced within the next few hours after a picture emerged of the Serbia international in the club's training gear.
The Chelsea midfielder underwent a medical on Sunday afternoon and could be unveiled as early as Sunday evening after Chelsea agreed to allow the 28-year-old to join their Premier League rivals for £40million.
The Blues had initially baulked at the idea of their player joining Premier League rivals, preferring him to make a move to Serie A side Juventus.
However, with the Italians unable to meet the financial package on offer at Old Trafford and with the player intent on leaving Stamford Bridge, it appears that the deal is close to completion.
And the move looked to be in its final stages on Sunday as one picture appeared, purportedly of Matic in his new Manchester United training gear with “31” boldly written on it.
The snap appeared to be one sent to someone in Serbia, with the reply underneath stating: 'First hand information' in Serbian.
The move will see Matic reunite with former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, whom he won the league under in 2015.
He will be the third fresh face through the door at Old Trafford this summer following the arrivals of defender Victor Lindelof and striker Romelu Lukaku.
