Sky Sports report that the 20-year-old is believed to have undertaken a medical in Manchester and could secure a move to the Premier League champions shortly.
Sir Alex Ferguson has acted quickly and has nullified reported interest from Arsenal, Inter and AC Milan, as the France Under-21 International has reportedly agreed terms on a four-year-deal to join up with United.
Bordeaux manager, former Manchester United defender Laurent blanc , recently admitted he was surprised by United's approach after poor performances led to him sending Obertan on loan to FC Lorient for the second half of last season.
"I was surprised too, but it is an unexpected chance for him to play with one of the best clubs in the world," he told Europe1
"He has the potential, but he must overcome psychological and mental challenges so he can express his true value."
Obertan has just be named Most Valuable Player at the Toulon international youth tournament, in which his French side finished second to Chilie.
