S. Aurier - one step away from moving to Manchester

Football news portal Goal.com sources reported that defender Serge Aurier will sign a five-year contract with Manchester United in the near future.

Currently, the team's coach Jose Mourinho can rely on Antonio Valencia and Matteo Darmian in the right flank, but he wants to strengthen this position with another footballer.

Since 2014, the Ivory Coast national team member represented Paris Saint-Germain, where he played 57 Ligue 1 matches.

Although Aurier performed well in matches, his character hindered him from taking on a more important role in Paris.

It is his character that could cause problems when moving to England, where he is currently banned from setting foot due to a police officer assault.

However, the 24-year-old footballer has filed an appeal, and Manchester United hopes that it will be accepted, and Aurier will be able to represent the Red Devils.
