5/ UNITED'S MOVE 🔴

Reported by David Ornstein (@TheAthletic) and Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano): agreement reached, personal terms done, medical to follow. Framed as a like-for-like Casemiro replacement to sit alongside Kobbie Mainoo — Carrick's first stamp on the squad.

4/ THE FEE 💷

Reported at around £34m (€40.5m) fixed, plus roughly £4m (€4.5m) in add-ons. A sensible mid-tier fee for a proven Serie A midfielder entering his prime.
