Manchester United are growing increasingly confident of signing Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata.

ESPN says United are making progress on a move for the former Juventus man.

And there is optimism a deal could be agreed in time for Morata to attend the Red Devils pre-season tour of America on July 9.

Personal terms should be agreed quickly as the striker is keen to move to Old Trafford.

And the only sticking point will be the two clubs settling on a transfer fee for the Spain international.

It's also claimed United are the only club in negotiations with Real for Morata.
