Galatasaray midfielder Wesley Sneijder will reportedly join Manchester United on a free transfer in the January transfer window.
The experienced Dutchman has long been linked with a move to Old Trafford, with former Netherlands boss Louis van Gaal now in the hotseat.
The 30-year-old recently revealed that he had not been paid for three months, placing his long-term future with the Turkish side in doubt.
According to The Metro, United are confident of acquiring the playmaker on a short-term contract at the start of 2015.
Sneijder has played for Ajax, Real Madrid and Inter Milan during a glittering playing career.
