United have been linked with signing the Japanese international for some time.
It appears today that they are on the verge of completing that transfer.
“Manchester United is delighted to announce that it has agreed terms with both Borussia Dortmund and Shinji Kagawa for his transfer to the club,” said a United statement.
“The deal is subject only to the player medical and obtaining a UK work permit. These conditions are anticipated to be completed by the end of June.
“Further details will be announced in due course.”
The deal for the 23-year-old is thought to be worth £12million, potentially rising to £17million with add-ons.
