Defender Victor Lindelof is currently having his medical at Manchester United Wednesday ahead of a proposed transfer from Benfica. He arrived at Carrington training ground in a Chevrolet, which is perfect given how Chevy is United’s short sponsor.
It is widely reported that the medical will go fine, and that we will see the photos of Lindelof in a United shirt, and his introductory interviews published by the club’s official website later today.
Victor Lindelof is the first completed signing of the summer transfer window for Manchester United, with rumors that Alvaro Morata could be next.

So that would take care of the defender and center-forward positions, which are supposedly on Ed Woodward and Jose Mourinho’s wish lists. There’s talk that Old Trafford is also looking to acquire a holding midfielder and winger. In terms of midfielders, Nemanja Matic, a player on Mourinho’s previous team, has emerged as a candidate.
Watch this space as it should be a really fun and interesting summer.
