Shakhtar's Fred to move to Manchester United for EUR 50 mln

FC Shakhtar Donetsk midfielder Fred will move to England's Manchester United this summer for 50 million euros, according to online sports site tribuna.com, which refers to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.

Manchester United refused to sign Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic since the club has no intention of spending EUR 100 million on a potential reserve.

Earlier reports said that Manchester United was actively working on Fred's transfer and wanted to sign the Brazilian in early June. Shakhtar wanted 60 million euros for the transfer.

Fred played 37 matches for Shakhtar this season, scoring four goals and making six assists.
