Looks like United are closing in on Matic. The fee is going to be ugly, especially after the Lukaku thing (several newspapers are already talking about a "Lukaku tax") ... but yeah, I hope he'll be a good fit. The Guardian says that Eric Dier was the main target, but Tottenham turned down three United bids and Chelsea have been much more receptive to selling Matic. I still don't get why United don't just sign Fabinho instead, who's desperate for a move ...
