There are numerous reports claiming that Juventus has indeed sold Arturo Vidal to Manchester United. Nothing is official yet, but we’ve heard that an announcement could come this week. Vidal‘s agent has confirmed to Chilean newspaper La Tercera that he is close to agreeing to sell the player to United.
Mundo Deportiva are also reporting that Arturo is very close to signing a deal. So how close are we? Well, one of the biggest heroes of the Chile National team just did an interview on Chile television, where he was asked about his being linked with a move to Old Trafford.
“I heard about the rumors,when I return in Italy I will see what happens,” Vidal said.
“I’m very calm, and anyone would love to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world”
The Spanish publication AS is saying the deal is done too, and Metro have made a claim that includes a monetary amount and the inclusion of Evra in the deal.
