The brother of Everton defender Michael Keane is set to join Manchester United next month to replace outgoing chief transfer negotiator Matt Judge.
Keane will now play a significant role in negotiating transfers and contracts during what is expected to be a busy window for United following the appointment of Erik ten Hag as new head coach; with Frenkie de Jong and Pau Torres among the club's targets.
His former employer Brandsmiths website reads: 'In sport, Tom has vast experience in the football industry where he has become a trusted advisor and representative for household name players, managers and pundits.
'His work for these clients includes negotiating high value transfers, contracts and endorsement agreements.'
Let’s hope we aren’t waiting for him to get on board before actually doing any transfers

Can already see him pinging passes out to Dalot to cross for a rejuvenated Martial. Salivating.

Why have we hired someone to deal with transfers that won't start until mid way through the transfer window?

I think that's classed as 'getting him in early' at Old Trafford..
