Benfica have reportedly agreed to allow Umaro Embalo to sign for Manchester United in the near future.

Last month, it was claimed that United had developed an interest in Embalo, with the 16-year-old having impressed in the youth sides at Benfica.

According to Record, United have now met Benfica's demands for the teenager, who will allegedly cost in the region of £5m.

Real Madrid were also said to be admirers of the prospect, but United are seemingly primed to confirm an agreement with the Portuguese giants.

Embalo will reportedly feature in United's academy setup before coming under consideration for a place in Jose Mourinho's first team.
