Manchester United’s move for Fabinho is a good news for Tottenham

According to reports from Italy, Manchester United and AS Monaco have agreed a fee of €35m plus €5m in bonuses for Brazilian midfielder Fabinho.

Despite signing Paul Pogba from Juventus on a world record transfer fee, it seems Jose Mourinho is still looking to add more bodies in the middle of the park.

With Michael Carrick approaching the fag end of his career, United are looking at a player who can be his like for like replacement – someone who is imposing with a good passing ability.

Fabinho has been one of the key players for Monaco last season, and will no doubt add depth and quality to the United side.
