Man Utd set for swift Ferdi Kadioglu meeting as £50m transfer 'lined up'
Manchester United target Ferdi Kadioglu will be at Old Trafford sooner rather than later, regardless of whether he joins the Red Devils or not. The defender is being linked with a late switch to United, who are in the market for a new left-back to provide cover for Luke Shaw. They have already raided Brighton for the services of Carlos Baleba this summer, paying around £70million to land the midfielder on a five-year contract.
