Man Utd pay mega £18.6M for Carrick
Manchester United are paying a staggering £18.6 million for Tottenham midfielder Michael Carrick.
The 25-year-old England midfielder will have a medical today.
And in a statement issued to the Stock Exchange this morning, Spurs confirmed the fee for Carrick was "for a total consideration of up to £18.6m".
United boss Sir Alex Ferguson said: "Michael will have his medical on Monday and then, hopefully, we will be able to conclude that deal."
The sale of Carrick represents a massive profit for Spurs, who signed him from West Ham for £2.75m two years ago.
West Ham are reported to be in for a windfall when the transfer goes through, with a sell-on clause included as part of the deal that took him to White Hart Lane.
