MANCHESTER UNITED are closing in on £15m deal for Austrian defender Aleksandar Dragovic.

The Dinamo Kiev star has previously been linked with Arsenal and Barcelona but it now looks like the centre-back could be on his way to Old Trafford.
Reports in Austria claim that United have lodged a bid with the Ukrainian club and have a lucrative contract ready to tempt Dragovic to make the move to the Premier League.
United look to have missed out on Gabriel Paulista to Arsenal and are also not optimistic that they will be able to persuade Borussia Dortmund to part with Mats Hummels before the end of the month.

Arsenal is a childhood dream.
And that has seen them step up their efforts to land Dragovic, who previously declared that a move to Arsenal would be a childhood dream.
He said: "Of course, you can hear a lot of rumours, but I still have three and a half year contract with Dynamo Kiev, so I deal with it.
"If something is on the table, I'll look at it myself. I can not influence anything. But yes, Arsenal is a childhood dream."
