Lille set to sign Manchester United and West Ham target Kevin Malcuit from St Etienne – reports

Lille have had an £8m offer accepted for Manchester United and West Ham target Kevin Malcuit.

According to L'Equipe, St Etienne have finally accepted the bid after weeks of negotiations with their fellow Ligue 1 club.

It will come as bad news to the two Premier League sides, who have both been heavily linked with the right-back over the past few months.

But he looks set to stay in France after agreeing a five-year deal at Lille, where he will now undergo a medical test before the switch is rubber-stamped.
