Premier League rivals Arsenal and Liverpool were linked with the winger as well, however, the Mancunian giants are confident of sealing the deal for the Ivory Coast international despite their failure to offer Champions League football next season.
Adrien Rabiot has also attracted interest from United, who are looking for a new midfielder amid Ander Herrera’s departure and uncertainity over Paul Pogba’s future.
The 24-year-old’s contract with Paris Saint-Germain is set to expire at the end of the season, which means United could sign him up on a free transfer. He is said to be demanding a base salary of £175,000-a-week and a £10m signing-on fee.
