Tottenham Hotspur may reportedly lower their valuation of midfielder Christian Eriksen before the end of the week.
With just a year remaining on the playmaker's contract, Spurs wish to avoid the threat of losing one of their star men on a free transfer next summer.
Reports have indicated that United are keen on doing a deal before the close of play on Thursday - something which allegedly appeals to Eriksen.
However, The Mirror claims that Spurs are already contemplating dropping the 27-year-old's asking price in order to generate more concrete interest.
While United and other Premier League clubs only have until 5pm on August 8 to finalise a transfer, teams in Spain and Italy have until the beginning of September.
Spurs, as it stands, are said to be looking for a fee in the region of £130m.
