With the signing of Swedish defender Victor Lindelof almost set to be announced by Manchester United by the end of this week and with Alvaro Morata also possibly coming in this summer from Real Madrid, expect a busy transfer period from the Red Devils.

Now, yet another name has emerged who could well be set to enter the Old Trafford ranks. 23-year-old defensive midfielder-cum-right back Fabinho could well be the third signing of the summer for Manchester United.

One of the major stars for AS Monaco for the past two seasons, the Brazilian does possess some high-rated skill sets... and also a ravishing wife, who could enthral Old Trafford.

Portuguese journal O Jogo reporter Bruno Andrade has claimed that Fabinho could be announced as the next Manchester United player after Victor Lindelof. He has also mentioned that United are also eyeing another Benfica player in defender Nelson Semedo.

According to British publication Sun, Fabinho's wife Rebeca Tavares did send out a huge indication that her better half could well be on his way to Manchester United after the drop-dead gorgeous Brazilian beauty 'liked' an Instagram post of a Man Utd fan asking Fabinho to join Jose Mourinho's side.

Fabinho, who has a contract with Monaco until June 30, 2021, is reportedly valued at £40million.

During an interview earlier this year, he did mention his desire to play for a club as big as Manchester United. "My objective is to get to a club with the dimension of Manchester United," the 23-year-old was quoted saying by the Sun.

"I have no clue if one day I'll be a United player, but I'll keep working so it stops being a rumour and becomes reality."
