Manchester United are now edging closer to completing a last-gasp loan deal for Bayern Munich midfielder Marcel Sabitzer ahead of Tuesday night's 11pm transfer deadline.
After spending significantly in the summer and sealing temporary deals for Jack Butland and Wout Weghorst earlier this month, United were not expected to be involved in any late business on deadline day.
But Erik ten Hag was always likely to act after it emerged that Christian Eriksen is set for a three-month spell on the sidelines as a result of an injury he sustained at the hands of Andy Carroll in United's recent FA Cup triumph.
