Manchester United are locked in talks with Borussia Monchengladbach goalkeeper Yann Sommer.

ESPN says United are nearing a free transfer for Switzerland goalie Sommer.

The Gladbach goalie is out of contract next summer.

United are well advanced in talks over a pre-agreement from January onwards.

Sommer would likely replace Newcastle loanee Martin Dubravka, with Tom Heaton also likely to leave.
