Man Utd to confirm Schneiderlin sale

French midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin is all set to join Everton after they agreed on an initial £22m sum with Manchester United for his services.

The 27-year-old has had a standstill to his career at Old Trafford with manager Jose Mourinho reluctant to offer him with regular first-team opportunities.

According to BBC Sport, the Toffees have settled on a £22m fee plus performance-based bonuses to sign the midfielder this month.

Toffees boss Ronald Koeman has been keen on a reunion with his former Southampton ace and the Frenchman's arrival would provide a boost to the midfield which lacks the presence of Idrissa Gueye - on international duty with Senegal at AFCON.

Everton are also keen on concluding a deal for Manchester United's Memphis Depay, but they are yet to finalize a suitable agreement for his transfer.
