Aaron Wan-Bissaka has completed a medical at West Ham ahead of a £15m move from Manchester United.
The 26-year-old has agreed his exit terms from Old Trafford and the formalities are being finalised.
Wan-Bissaka is set to be replaced by Noussair Mazraoui after Man Utd agreed a £17.2m deal with Bayern Munich for the Morocco international.
Mazraoui is in Manchester for a medical and would cost United a transfer fee of £12.9m plus performance-related add-ons, potentially worth £4.3m.
United's pursuit of Mazraoui has been dependent on Wan-Bissaka leaving for West Ham.
West Ham had agreed a £16.5m deal themselves for Mazraoui last month, but the move broke down, with the Hammers shifting their attention to Wan-Bissaka.
Wan-Bissaka has made 190 appearances for Manchester United across five seasons, winning the Carabao Cup and FA Cup since joining in 2019.
West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui was in charge at Wolves when they tried to sign Wan-Bissaka last summer.
Manchester United have agreed a deal to sign Matthijs de Ligt from Bayern Munich.
The move will be worth €50m (£42.9m), with an initial €45m (£38.6m) plus €5m (£4.3m) in add-ons.
De Ligt arrived at Carrington on Monday morning ahead of a medical, with personal terms not expected to be a problem.
The defender would need to be registered by midday on Thursday to be available for Manchester United's opening Premier League match against Fulham on Friday.
The 25-year-old has spent two seasons at Bayern Munich since signing from Juventus, playing 73 times and scoring five goals.
De Ligt also played under Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag at Ajax, where they won the Eredivisie in 2019.
The 2024 summer transfer window officially closes on August 30 at 11pm UK time in the Premier League and 11.30pm in Scotland.
The Premier League has brought forward Deadline Day to link up with the other major leagues in Europe. The closing dates were set following discussions with the leagues in England, Germany, Italy, Spain and France.
