Telles should follow the Uruguayan in at Old Trafford ahead of Monday's transfer deadline after sources told ESPN United are in advanced negotiations over a deal for the Brazilian left-back.

Porto have accepted a bid of around €15 million plus add-ons after initially demanding closer to €20m up front. The 27-year-old is scheduled to undergo a medical before joining up with the Brazil national team.

United turned down the chance to sign Cavani in January after being put off by his wage demands of £360,000-a-week. After leaving Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, the striker has been offered to every major club in Europe before United stepped up their interest last week.

Sources have told ESPN his wages will be significantly lower than his demands in January and the agent fees involved in the deal will be lower than €10m.

Cavani has already spoken to former PSG teammate Thiago Silva, who joined Chelsea in the summer, about the Premier League and life in England.

United were keen to tie up a deal for a centre forward knowing that Odion Ighalo loan from Shanghai Shenhua is set to end in January.

Meanwhile, United full-back Diogo Dalot has joined AC Milan on loan for the rest of the season.
