The Argentine centre-back has been a top performer in La Liga this season, and may now be heading to the Premier League after reportedly agreeing terms with the Red Devils.
Louis van Gaal has been determined to bring in new signings to strengthen his defence, and Otamendi has recently emerged as one of his priority targets in that position.
Chelsea had also shown an interest in the 27-year-old, though he may not have been guaranteed as much playing time at Stamford Bridge.
