Man United agree to sign player for €80m, Woodward concludes talks

 Portuguese newspaper Record have some huge claims in their Friday edition on Renato Sanches to
Manchester United. It's stated that Benfica president Luís Filipe Vieira has always been determined to make sure he gets €80m for Sanches, his termination clause, and Record believe he's done so... in a way.
Record say Manchester United have put €40m on the table, and would pay the other €40m in bonuses. Talks between the two clubs have been successful, say Record, and a transfer should be completed before Euro 2016. 
The newspaper touch on the Manchester meeting between Luís Filipe Vieira, Jorge Mendes, and Ed Woodward, as reported initially by O Jogo, and reckon everything was sorted out.
Louis van Gaal is brought into the equation and his willingness to pay large sums for young players, and then put big faith in them. Record say that should Jose Mourinho take over at Old Trafford, that will suit the transfer too, because they believe the Portuguese manager believes the Premier League is suited to giving young players a chance... something many would scoff at.
We'd probably side more with O Jogo's claims on this: That a meeting did take place and when agreement is reached it's likely to be for something around €60m.
