Napoli defender Kim Min-jae has agreed to join Manchester United, it has been claimed.

Il Mattino reports United have struck personal terms with the South Korea international and will trigger his buyout clause of 60m when it comes into effect in the first two weeks of July.

Napoli president Aurelio de Laurentiis stated on Sunday that he did expect to lose some "senators" this summer.

Kim only moved to Napoli last summer from Fenerbahce, but has his heart set on a move to Old Trafford. His switch from Fener cost Napoli 18m.

This season, Kim has played 43 times in all competitions, scoring two goals in a team that has kept 15 league clean sheets.
