Manchester United are ready to buy Sporting CP defender Goncalo Inacio in January.
Inacio has been scouted by United for the past year, with their interest intensifying this past month.
Correio da Manha says United have seen enough and intend to trigger his buyout clause over the New Year.
It's suggest United have 'hopes of agreeing to a payment structure' for Inacio's 52million clause.
Inacio's deal expires in June, but United are acting now in order to beat Real Madrid to his signature.
