The Argentina international has been tipped to leave the Spanish outfit this summer despite only joining from Porto a year ago for £8.5million.
Otamendi has impressed in 36 appearances under Nuno Espirito Santo this season, but Argentine media outlet Diario Ole claims that the centre-back is now close to linking up with Louis van Gaal.
It is reported that United and Otamendi have reached an agreement over a long-term lucrative contract, with the 27-year-old due to form a partnership at the back with compatriot Marcos Rojo.
However, the Red Devils are yet to strike a fee with Valencia, and will apparently have to meet Otamendi's £36m release clause in order to complete the transfer.
