The Torino right-back is set to join Louis
van Gaal's side in the coming days, with the club believed to have agreed a
deal worth around £12.9 million plus add-ons
Goal understands that United have agreed a deal worth €18 million (£12.9m) plus €2m (£1.4m) in add-ons with the Turin club for the Italy international and an announcement is expected in the coming days.
Darmian, who made 46 appearances in all competitions in 2014-15, has now expressed his delight at his impending transfer, though he has refused to publicly announce that he will join United.
He is quoted as saying by gianlucadimarzio.com: "I'm very excited, we'll face this new adventure. It's a dream, I'm superstitious so I won't say anything until the signatures, let's wait.
"I say thank you to Torino and their fans who have been great these years."
Torino president Urbana Cairo revealed on Thursday that the deal had yet to be finalised, but the transfer appears to have accelerated in the past 24 hours.
