Manchester United are reportedly preparing a £31m summer move for Atletico Madrid's 21-year-old midfielder Saul Niguez.

Manchester United are reportedly closing in on the summer capture of Atletico Madrid youngster Saul Niguez.

According to Don Balon, United are ready to offer more than £30m to secure the 21-year-old's services.

Saul has scored eight goals in 36 appearances for Atleti this term after extending his contract at the Vicente Calderon to run until summer 2020 last year.

United reportedly tried to sign him in January, only for the player to back out of a possible move.
