Werder Bremen hopeful signing Man Utd winger Chong today

Werder Bremen are aiming to sign Manchester United winger Tahith Chong today.

Werder and United have been in talks for weeks over a loan arrangement for the Holland U21 international.

BILD says Werder have found a breakthrough and there's a confidence of a deal being signed off today.

United had initially insisted that Werder take over Chong's gross salary of 2.8 million euros. That was not possible for Bremen - and now United are willing to pay part of the salary itself.

Chong will arrive as a replacement for Milot Rashica, who is in advanced talks with RB Leipzig.
