Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho hailed France midfielder Paul Pogba's imminent arrival from Juventus on Sunday, describing the move as "amazing".
Both clubs confirmed that Pogba was due to undergo a medical at United as the most long-running transfer saga of the close season neared a conclusion.
Pogba, who left United in 2012, is expected to cost the English giants a world-record transfer fee of around 100 million pounds ($130.4 million, 117.7 million euros).
Speaking after United's 2-1 win over Leicester City in the Community Shield at Wembley, Mourinho told BT Sport: "It's amazing that such a good player is with us.
"Finally we have him. He comes to a winning side -- a team who have won their last two matches, in the FA Cup (last season) and today. He has to work hard to come to the team."
