Manchester United have secured a deal to bring teenage forward Gabriele Biancheri to the club.

The Cardiff City starlet is set to join Old Trafford as a scholar in the coming weeks.

The Manchester Evening News claims that everything to sign Biancheri is done, and he has also passed his medical.

Biancheri managed 17 goals and 10 assists for Cardiff's Under-16 side last term.

United will be hoping that Biancheri, who was recommended by David Hughes who joined United from Cardiff last term, can make the leap up to first team level in the next few years.

He joins the likes of Alejandro Garnacho as being younger players United secure from other academies to then further develop and integrate into the first team.
