Manchester United are reportedly making progress in their efforts to sign Sergej Milinkovic-Savic this summer.

New boss Erik ten Hag is seeking a new midfielder to fill Paul Pogba’s boots, with the star closing on a return to Juventus.

And that move will seemingly give United a free pass at landing long-term target Milinkovic-Savic.

As for Jurrien timber, the 20-year-old centre-half is likely to command a fee of around £30m, having impressed under Ten Hag at Ajax.

The United boss sees Timber as a perfect partner for Raphael Varane and an upgrade for the struggling Harry Maguire.

Now their prospects of landing Timber appear to have taken a leap forward.

That’s amid claims that United have now agreed personal terms with the player.

United are still to make an official approach to Ajax for Jurrien Timber. However, the Dutch giants are well aware of their interest and are expecting an offer to arrive imminently.
