Alex Telles did not report for Manchester United pre-season on Saturday and it looks like he will be on the move this summer.
Manchester United won’t be trying to keep the Brazil international at Old Trafford since he fell down the pecking order after Tyrell Malacia’s arrival last year.
Now, Telles is probably fourth choice left-back – behind Luke Shaw, Malacia and youngster Alvaro Fernandez.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Saudi Arabian outfit Al Nassr are closing in on a deal to sign Telles from United.
There’s already a verbal agreement in place between the two clubs and they’re just waiting on the final documents before everything gets announced to the public.

Eric Bailly is another United player who has yet to return to pre-season training, but at the same time, none of us expect him to feature next season.
Hopefully, Al Nassr take a chance on Bailly next because that will allow Erik ten Hag to secure more funding for his transfer kitty.
