Villa star Young to be £130,000-a-week Man Utd player inside 48hrs

Aston Villa winger Ashley Young should be a Manchester United player in the next 48 hours.

The Sun says Young will officially become a Manchester United player by the end of the week, after undergoing a medical on Wednesday.

The £20million Aston Villa winger was snapped yesterday arriving at United's Carrington training base dressed in a red hoodie and jeans, before he headed for tests with the club's medical team.

Young, 25, will pick up around £130,000 a week, after opting for Old Trafford ahead of Liverpool. His signing follows Phil Jones' £16.5m arrival from Blackburn.
