Breaking news: Manchester United set to sign EPL best player on free transfer deal ,deal set to be completed soon .

 Since the Germany international is 

among the greatest in his position in the 

Premier League, and Manchester United 

knows it, it's been one of the most talked

 about free agent tales of the season. 

Chelsea's current financial predicament 

prevents the club from offering him a new

 contract, even if he was apparently 

interested in doing so at Stamford 

Bridge, but that could change if 

Roman Abramovich sells the club. 

However, this could take some time

, allowing teams to approach Rüdiger 

with their own offers in the meanwhile, 

in the hopes of luring him away from London. 

Manchester United is one of them, with 

the German and French press hailing them

 as a serious contender to Juventus and 

Paris Saint-Germain for the Premier League.
