New Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has reportedly given the green light for the club to finalise a deal to sign Adam Ounas.
It was reported in April that the Red Devils, then managed by Louis van Gaal, had identified the Bordeaux winger as a potential summer transfer target.
According to The Mirror, the change in management has not altered United's thinking, with talks having got underway.
The 19-year-old, who is contracted to his current employers until 2019, scored six goals from his 28 appearances last term.
