Manchester United begin their 2015-16 Barclays Premier League campaign against Tottenham Hotspur on August 8, but how will the Red Devils line-up for the game at Old Trafford?
Take a look at our predicted United starting XI for the game if manager Louis van Gaal is able to secure his transfer targets.
GK) Keylor Navas
Should De Gea complete his move to Real Madrid at some point this summer, then United will need a suitable replacement and a swap deal for Navas would be a good option.

CB) Sergio Ramos
United’s interest in the Spanish international is genuine and with reports in the media suggesting Ramos wants a fresh challenge, he could forge one half of a new centre-back partnership at Old Trafford this season.
CB) Nicolas Otamendi
Manager Louis van Gaal is keen to bolster his defence and is reportedly closing in on the signing of the Argentine defender after Real Madrid dropped out of the race.
Otamendi and Ramos could be the partnership that brings a 21st league title to the club.
