Man Utd transfer news update 27/6/2017

RONALDO HOLDING UP MORATAS MAN UTD DEAL. The uncertainty over Cristiano Ronaldo's future is delaying an announcement over Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata's move to Manchester United, according to Diario Gol.

Real are reportedly prepared to accept an offer from United for Morata, who has confirmed to both Madrid president Florentino Perez and coach Zinedine Zidane that he wants to be playing at Old Trafford next season.

However, following reports that Ronaldo wants to quit Madrid after being accused of tax fraud, Real want to resolve that matter before letting Morata join United.

MATIC UTDS THIRD CHOICE. Nemanja Matic began the summer as Manchester Uniteds third choice central midfield target, according to the Daily Telegraph.

The Chelsea midfielder is on the verge of moving to Old Trafford for £40 million, but Jose Mourinho had wanted to sign either Eric Dier or Radja Nainggolan ahead of Matic.

A lack of movement over either of those deals has now led him to reuniting with a player he coached at Stamford Bridge.

MAN UTD MUST PAY €50M FOR PERISIC. Inter Milan have told Manchester United that Ivan Perisic will only leave the club for €50 million (£44m), according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Serie A side must raise €30m (£26. 4m) by the end of June to meet Financial Fair Play regulations and United were hoping to sign Perisic for that amount.

However, Inter are exploring other ways to raise the money and, if their €50m valuation of Perisic isn't met, then the Croatian midfielder will be staying at the club.

MATIC NEARS MAN UTD MOVE. Chelsea midfielder Nemanja Matic is on the verge of joining Manchester United in a £40m deal, according to The Guardian.

Jose Mourinho signed the Serbian in 2014 while managing Chelsea, and is now set to bring the 28-year-old to Old Trafford.  The two clubs have already agreed a transfer fee and Matic has agreed personal terms with United.

SPURS VALUE KANE AT £200M. Tottenham value Harry Kane close to £200 million following reports Manchester United were planning a £100m bid for the striker, according to The Independent.

Kane has been linked with a move to Old Trafford as Jose Mourinho chases a new No. 9, but Spurs have no intention of selling the England international and have 'laughed off' reports they would accept a £100m offer.

BALE WANTS PREMIER LEAGUE OVER PSG. Real Madrid star Gareth Bale would prefer a move to the Premier League rather than signing for PSG, according to the Daily Express.

The Welshman, who has reportedly attracted interest from Manchester United, is weighing up his options at the Bernabeu and his future could hinge on the clubs pursuit of Monaco ace Kylian Mbappe.

JAMES AGREES MAN UTD DEAL. Real Madrid playmaker James Rodriguez remains desperate to secure a move to Manchester United after agreeing personal terms with Jose Mourinho's side,  reports Diario Gol.

Rodriguez is determined to leave Madrid this summer, and AC Milan have been exploring the possibility of signing the Colombian on a season-long loan with a view to a permanent deal.

However, Rodriguez wants to join United, who are currently reluctant to meet Madrid president Florentino Perez's €70 million (£61.

MAN UTD TURN TO BERNARDESCHI. Manchester United could turn to Fiorentina winger Federico Bernardeschi if they fail to sign Ivan Perisic, according to Mediaset Premum via Football Italia.

Inter are playing hard ball over Perisics price, and United see Bernardeschi as a suitable alternative given both his price and his age.
