Sport says United are determined to sign Alvarez, who has scored 18 goals in 21 league games this season.

Alvarez, who progressed through the ranks at River Plate's academy, is a senior Argentina international and has been capped by his country on five occasions.

His agent Fernando Hidalgo is reportedly set to fly out to England in order to discuss a deal. Alvarez's deal carries a €20m buyout clause.
