Manchester United are interested in signing 19-year-old Ecuador midfielder Moises Caicedo, but the deal is not as certain as is being made out in the player’s South American homeland. Some reports say an agreement has been reached for a fee of €4 million, plus bonuses, but the truth is that no such terms have been finalised and talks are yet to even take place with his Ecuadorian club, Independiente del Valle.
To complicate matters, Caicedo has multiple agents claiming to represent him, so United are having some trouble nailing down exactly who has the mandate to act on the teenager’s behalf, and there are competing factions attempting to promote him, hence a proliferation of stories surfacing.
Amid all this, United are also conscious of managing the costs that can arise when numerous intermediaries become involved and that means there is still quite a way to go before any possible solution is found.
First-hand reports have been filed by United staff in South America, and Caicedo’s profile fits with those of Amad Diallo and Facundo Pellistri as a global teenage prospect. Some sources say a bid is expected, with Antonio Valencia, United’s Ecuadorian former captain, asked his opinion. But Old Trafford sources urge caution.
Independiente del Valle’s general manager Santiago Morales has spoken publicly on the matter. “There’s interest from various teams for Moises Caicedo and we believe that we will not have him this year,” Morales told Radio La Red. “There is much speculation, but we are surprised that they even talk about values. We haven’t had any communication with Manchester United, although we have spoken with other great teams in the world.”

I'm not too sure how ITK he would be!
Seems unlikely that Bloom et al would want to get involved with all that again - bit like that geezer who went from Bocas to West Ham
Anyone can find out who he follows on Instagram. I've just checked, it's true, he follows us and not Everton or West Ham
My apologies, you mean Moises Caicendo follows Brighton?
I thought you meant the Spanish speaking person that was tweeting the story.
Do we still own that nutter from Ecuador? Can't remember his name.
He does indeed!
Furthermore, United have pulled out apparently:

West Ham signed Argentinian pair Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano for undisclosed fees from Brazilian side Corinthians.
And they both had some kind of third party ownership which created all sorts of problems.
Is that who you were thinking of?
Well according to some South American journo we have reached an agreement
