Premier League giants Manchester United may be ready to pull a fast one on a rival.

The Red Devils appear set to hijack Arsenal's deal for Radu Dragusin from Genoa.

The 21-year-old Romanian came through the Juventus setup but then moved teams for regular football.

He has been compared to ex-United captain Nemanja Vidic for his powerful nature and all-action style.

ProSport in Romania is claiming that United are very close to getting a deal done.

There is a belief that an agreement may even be found for the January transfer window.
