According to The Times, Manchester United are nearing a deal for Juventus left-back Alex Sandro, who could officially join the Red Devils after the FA Cup final.
Sandro has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford, and the Brazilian is now heading for the 20-time English champions if the latest reports are to be believed.
Ashley Young has impressed in the left-back position for United this term, but Luke Shaw has been strongly linked with a move away, and there is no question that head coach Jose Mourinho needs to boost his options in that area of the field.

Sandro is valued at £45m according to transfermarkt.co.uk, although Italian champions Juventus are believed to be holding out for more than £50m.
The United fans have been reacting to the transfer news, and it would be fair to say that a number are excited about the potential arrival.
Sealing the signature of Sandro ahead of the 2018 World Cup would be huge for United, there is no doubt about that.
