Manchester United have accepted a world record offer of £80m from Real Madrid for Cristiano Ronaldo.
"United have agreed to give Real Madrid permission to talk to the player," said a statement from the English club.
It added that the decision came at Ronaldo's request after he "again expressed his desire to leave".
United described the offer for the 24-year-old forward as unconditional and added that they expected the matter to be concluded by 30 June.
It is understood that the transfer fee would be made available for manager Sir Alex Ferguson to invest in the transfer market.
Madrid signed Brazilian Kaka for a reported £56m earlier in the week, surpassing the previous world record fee of £45.6m Real paid for Zinedine Zidane in 2001.
