Manchester United Sign Experienced Stoke City Star, Subject To Medical

It has been reported that the Englishman was at United's Carrington training complex on Monday as he went through his medical tests prior to finalizing the £1.5m switch.

Thus, the 35-year old will act as an understudy to established Red Devils No.1, David de Gea while young goalkeepers, Joel Pereira and Sam Johnstone will be allowed to leave permanently and on loan respectively.

Grant will become Manchester United's third signing of the season when the deal is eventually finalized, following the capture of Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk and Diogo Dalot from Porto.

He numbers Burnley, Derby County, Oldham Athletic and Sheffield Wednesday amongst the list of his former employers.
