Manchester United are moving closer to signing Barcelona forward Pedro after meeting the £22million release clause in his contract.
The 28-year-old could even complete his move in time to line up in United's Barclays Premier League opener at home to Tottenham on Saturday lunchtime, though Barcelona want to keep him until after next week's UEFA Super Cup match with Sevilla.
Pedro, who scored 98 times for Barcelona, is a replacement for Angel di Maria, who was sold to Paris Saint-Germain for £44.4m - a loss of £15m - following a disappointing debut season at Old Trafford.
But how will Louis van Gaal tweak his line-up to accommodate the Spain international?
