DONE DEAL? Paul Woolston trains with Man Utd first team

Former Newcastle United goalkeeper Paul Woolston is now training with Manchester United's first team.

Woolston began trialling with United in September.

United let three goalkeepers - Dean Henderson, Joel Pereira and Kieran O'Hara - leave the club on loan in the summer and were keen to bring in another young stopper.

The Manchester Evening News says Woolston is their man and was pictured training with his new team-mates for the first time at Carrington on Tuesday with Jose Mourinho looking on.

Sergio Romero and David de Gea are both on international duty so Woolston did not have to wait long to train with veteran Lee Grant as goalkeeping coach Emilio Alvarez put the pair through their paces. The youngster had No.32 on his training top.

United are yet to announce Woolston's signing, however.
