Antonio Valencia is to undergo a medical at Manchester United today, according to reports.

The Wigan winger has been linked with a move to Old Trafford for some time, and the transfer now appears to be on the verge of being finalised.

Reports suggest a fee of £16m has been agreed between the two clubs for the Ecuadorian.

Should the deal go through, it will be Alex Ferguson's first signing of the summer as he looks to rebuild his squad following the departures of Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez.

United have also been strongly linked with a bid for Lyon forward Karim Benzema, but various reports suggest he is likely to move to Real Madrid should he leave France.
