The Daily Mail say the Real Madrid striker is hoping to have his future wrapped up within two weeks.
The Red Devils are increasingly confident they can sign the Spain international for a fee worth over £60m.
He has informed Real of his desire to leave this summer as he goes in search of more game time.
Antoine Griezmann of Atletico Madrid was Jose Mourinho’s No.1 target but he’s moved on quickly after the Frenchman snubbed the Red Devils.
The Mailsay Morata’s eagerness for first-team football will help them get the deal done.
Andrea Belotti is also a target but his monster £87m release clause makes him a less viable option.
Real are unlikely to resist Morata’s desire to go after failing to deliver the game time he craves.
If United can come up with the cash he will be allowed to move.
The Mail add that a potential move for Morata will have no bearing on the future of David De Gea.
The keeper is a long-term Real target but the two players’ fates are completely unconnected.
