 Manchester United will have to pay a British record transfer fee to sign winger Angel Di Maria from Real Madrid.

Real coach Carlo Ancelotti revealed Di Maria, 26, said goodbye to his team-mates ahead of an impending move.

United have been quoted £75m for the Argentine, though they do not expect the final figure to be so high.

However, senior club sources say the fee will "definitely" eclipse the £50m Chelsea paid Liverpool for striker Fernando Torres in 2011.

The Red Devils last broke the British transfer record when they paid Leeds £29.1m for Rio Ferdinand in 2002.

"Di Maria has not trained with us today and he came in to say goodbye to the players and people at the club," said Ancelotti on Sunday.
