Shinji Kagawa: Latest Updates on Manchester United Target

Manchester United has continued to work on completing the transfer of Borussia Dortmund midfielder Shinji Kagawa, according to BBC Sport.

"

The 23-year-old has still to agree personal terms but United expect negotiations to progress smoothly.

The initial fee for Kagawa is in the region of £12m, rising to £17m depending on success and appearances.

"Some details are to be confirmed," Dortmund director Michael Zorc said.

With the negotiations looking promising, there's no rush for United to make this transfer happen quickly and potentially risk losing Kagawa.

He also won't be playing in the European Championships this month, since Japan is obviously not a UEFA member.

So there is no worry that his transfer value will dramatically rise during that tournament like several of the other top transfer target's value may.

Kagawa will be playing for his country this summer, however, as he tries to help Japan qualify for the 2014 World Cup when his country continues their qualification schedule.

These matches will be a good opportunity for Red Devils' fans to watch Kagawa play in important matches on the international stage.

Kagawa would be an exciting player for United, and hopefully the transfer can be completed soon so he can focus on his future.
