Manchester United is according to the Sunday Express on the verge of making Stefan De Vrij their third signing of the summer after reportedly hijacking Lazio’s deal for the Dutchman.

Earlier in the week United unveiled Ander Herrera and Luke Shaw as new manager Louis van Gaal’s first signings while promising more to follow.

De Vrij is currently part of the Holland national team working with van Gaal in Brazil, and despite secretly travelling to Rome for discussions with Lazio it is thought that he would like to continue working with van Gaal at club level.

Once United’s interest became known Lazio automatically accepted that they had lost their man who United expect to sign for around £8 million.

When the deal will be announced will depend on how far the Netherlands progress in the competition with their last-16 match against Mexico taking place this afternoon.
