Manchester United midfielder Darren Fletcher is undergoing a medical at West Ham as he moves closer to a move to Upton Park. United boss Louis van Gaal had already revealed the Scottish international was in talks with the Hammers.

"He is now in West Ham, so we have to wait and see," said Van Gaal on Friday. "He is my third captain so he is an important guy in the dressing room.

"I like him as a human being and a player, so we will miss him."
