Manchester United have had a very quiet winter transfer window so far.

Cristiano Ronaldo left the club in November, forcing Manchester United to dip into to market and sign Wout Weghorst.

The Dutchman was on loan in Turkey with Besiktas from Championship outfit Burnley but has since joined the Red Devils on loan for the remainder of the campaign.

Elsewhere, Jack Butland arrived to provide cover between the sticks.

Now, as per David Ornstein, Manchester United have agreed a deal with Cardiff City for striker Gabriele Biancheri, the 16-year-old Wales Under-17 international who also qualifies to represent England and Italy.

Biancheri completed a medical over the weekend and is set to join United, signing a scholar contract and then a long-term professional deal when he turns 17 in September.

The move does not need to be done before Tuesday’s deadline but United have acted decisively to secure a player who was on the radar for a number of leading clubs.
