Manchester United are reportedly on the verge of signing Fabinho from AS Monaco this summer, according to Spanish newspaper Marca.

The Red Devils have made an advance talks in their efforts to lure the 23-year-old midfielder to the Old Trafford for next season.

The report claims that United have made progress in their pursuit to sign the Brazilian as manager Jose Mourinho looks for his first signing of the summer.

The Ligue 1 champions have already lost a couple of their key players this summer, with Bernardo Silva and Benjamin Mendy both are likely to join Manchester City.

Fabinho has been impressive last season as he notched nine goals and registered one assist in 37 Ligue 1 appearances for the French outfit.

The 20-time English champions are yet to announce any official confirmation this summer despite having been linked with a number of players in recent weeks.
