Vermaelen agrees personal terms with Red Devils.
It seems as though Arsenal’s 28-year old centre-back Thomas Vermaelen has made up his mind about a switch to Old Trafford this summer after having been a mere squad player at the Emirates for the last 18 months, according to talkSPORT.
The Belgian international has reportedly finalised everything from his side to make the switch happen, but transfer fee negotiations with Arsenal are proving to be the only stumbling block.
The Gunners want a fee in the region of £11 million to sell the former Ajax star, and it remains to be seen whether the Red Devils are willing to shell out that much for a defender, who has only one more year left on his current deal with the Gunners.
Arsenal are also yet to sign a suitable replacement for their skipper though, which could also affect the time taken to complete negotiations with their arch rivals Manchester United.
