Uruguay Under-20 star Guillermo Varela has confirmed that he will have a medical at Manchester United on Friday before he joins up with the national squad.
It was rumoured yesterday that Varela would become new United manager David Moyes's first official signing, although the player did have trials at the end of last season.
"I will have a medical on Friday and on Saturday I join the Uruguay Under-20 national team," Varela told Futbol a lo Penarol radio.
"I will have to learn English. Rodolfo Catino (Penarol's treasurer) taught me something, the structure is impressive."
The 20-year-old's natural position is right-back.
