Manchester United, Barcelona set for talks over Pedro transfer - sources
Manchester United will meet with representatives of both Barcelona and winger Pedro in the United States over the weekend, as they hope to complete a deal for the 27-year-old by the middle of next week, sources have told ESPN FC.
The two clubs face each other in a preseason friendly on Saturday in San Francisco, and that could lead to a move for the winger being done in the space of a few days.
Barcelona's public statements over the past week have indicated that they are resigned to losing Pedro, who wants more regular first-team football, despite manager Luis Enrique's insistence that the 27-year-old stay as a back-up to their stellar attacking trident of Leo Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez.
His United counterpart Louis van Gaal sees Pedro as the ideal type of wide-player in his system, despite some slight reservations about the player's pace.

Barça and United in talks over Pedro
arcelona and Manchester United are in talks over a deal for Pedro. The player looks like he will get his way and the remarks by Josep María Bartomeu seem to have done nothing to change his mind, after the president said that there would be no more players in or out of the squad.
Luis Enrique is not keen to see the winger go either. The manager said that he does not want him to leave and that he believes that it would harm Barcelona's chances of doing a double treble.
Pedro, however, is not willing to spend another year in the shadow of the team's attacking trio and he has informed the coach and president of his desire to move to United. The fact that both Bartomeu and Manchester United are currently in the same city could expedite the deal. In fact, the two teams are set to play each other on Saturday.
Barcelona will not make it easy for United though. The club and Pedro signed a new deal to extend his contract, but they also agreed that if another club puts €30 million on the table, they would accept the offer and it would be easier for the player to depart.
Van Gaal wants the Spaniard at Old Trafford and the footballer has been tempted by the opportunity.
