Manchester United will sign Brazil International Matheus Cunha after meeting the £ 62.5 million buyout clause in his Wolves contract, British media reported Wednesday.
The Red Devils quickly moved to start with an overhaul of Ruben Amorim's team after their worst season since the English giants were banned 51 years ago.
United finished 15th in the Premier League and lost the Europa League final to Tottenham, which means that they did not qualify for the European competition next season.
The BBC reported that United will pay the reimbursement in three episodes in the next two years after Wolves has rejected a proposal to split the payment for five years.
Cunha scored 17 goals to help Wolves get out of a relegation struggle, while they only finished behind United on target difference in the Premier League table.
However, the 26-year-old has made no secret of his wish to continue from Molineux.
“I made it clear that I have to take the next step,” Cunha told The Guardian in March.
“I want to fight for titles, for big things. I have potential.”
United is also willing to comply with the £ 30 million buyout report for Ipswich striker Liam Delap, according to an ESPN report.
The England under 21 years of International scored 12 Premier League goals last season, but is expected to move after Ipswich had been relegated to the championship.
However, Delap also attracts interest from Chelsea.
