The Bursaspor youngster, valued at £5 milllon, is considered one of the country's promising players and has produced some eye-catching performances so far this season.

Yildirim, 18, is joint top-scorer of the Turkcell Super Lig with Galatasary striker Milan Baros having found the net four times in as many matches.

"Manchester United have been in contact with my family and the president of my club - that makes me very happy," Yildirim said.

The hitman has made a total of 12 appearances for Bursaspor in the Turkish top flight, scoring five goals since making his debut last season.

His four this season have helped Bursaspor into second place in the league after five matches played.
