Bayern Munich have reached an agreement with Roma to sign Mehdi Benatia.
Speculation earlier today had suggested that a deal was close to completion, with Bayern having seen off reported competition from Manchester United and Chelsea for the defender.
The German club have now confirmed that their Serie A counterparts have accepted their offer, which is believed to be around £24m.
Pending the passing of a medical, Benatia will sign a five-year contract at the Allianz Arena.
