Close to completion.
Manchester United and Barcelona attacker Pedro have reportedly agreed terms ahead of his impending move to Old Trafford.
Sky Sports’ La Liga expert Guillem Balague claims the 28-year-old’s agents have reached an agreement with United.

All that remains to be haggled over is a price tag.
As of today, both sides are standing firm over their valuations.
United are low-balling, with their only bid being €20m thus far.
Barcelona are said to be happy to let the Spanish international go but only if his €30m release clause is met.
As we reported on Wednesday, United boss Louis van Gaal will start the new season with Pedro on the right side of his front three.
He will take up a right-sided berth, with Memphis Depay on the left and Wayne Rooney leading the line.
Van Gaal would like to get the Barca star (204 appearances, 58 goals) in the door before his side’s league opener against Tottenham, on Saturday.
