According to a report from Foot Mercato journalists Hanif Ben Berkane and Santi Aouna (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), Manchester United has given the signal to Bayern Munich outside-back Noussair Mazraoui that a deal will soon be finalized.
Before anything can be signed, though, Manchester United needs to complete its deal with West Ham United for Aaron Wan-Bissaka:
Manchester United have told Noussair Mazraoui that a deal to bring him to Old Trafford will be finalized. The Moroccan is awaiting the green light to leave Bayern’s summer tour. United are finalizing the last details with West Ham for Wan-Bissaka, before proceeding with the move for Mazraoui.
With one move likely headed toward completion, Bayern Munich might now be able to make advances on some of its other transfer targets.
