'Great business for a young star' - Manchester United fans react to Tyrell Malacia transfer news

Manchester United fans have praised the club for the fast nature in which they have agreed a deal for Tyrell Malacia.

The left-back looks set to be Erik ten Hag’s first signing as United boss after Feyenoord director Frank Arnesen confirmed the imminent deal. Lyon looked to be leading the race for Malacia’s signature after the French outfit reportedly tabled a £12m bid.

But United look to have hijacked the move with the MEN Sport revealing the club are closing in on a deal for the youngster. The move could spell the end of Alex Telles' Old Trafford career.
