All of Friday’s transfer rumours surrounding Man United.

Real Madrid offer Angel Di Maria to United for £40m

Manchester United have been offered the chance to sign Real Madrid midfielder Angel Di Maria for a fee of £40m, according to the Daily Star.

Louis Van Gaal is said to be keen on the Argentinian as he look to add more quality to his midfield with some of Europe’s best players.

However, the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea are still interested in signing him themselves and may look to beat the Red Devils to his signature.

United look to hijack Arsenal’s move for Sanchez

Manchester United will try to hijack Arsenal’s move for talented Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez this summer, according to the Metro.

Both Arsenal and Liverpool are said to be battling it out to bring him to the Premier League, and the Gunners had been tipped as favourites after the player distanced himself from a move to Liverpool.

But Van Gaal is a firm admirer of the player too, and will look to put his own lucrative offer on the table in order to bring him to Old Trafford instead.

Manchester United target James Rodriguez has distanced himself from a move to the Premier League following his star performances at the World Cup this summer, the Metro reports.

A number of English sides were said to be keen on landing his services from Monaco, just one year after linking up with the Ligue 1 side.

However, he has insisted that he has his sights firmly set on a switch to Real Madrid after admitting he is not physically ready for the challenge of the Premier League.

Juventus keen on prizing Evra away from Old Trafford

Serie A giants Juventus are hopeful of snaring veteran France defender Patrice Evra away from Manchester United this summer, talkSPORT reports.

Following the arrival of Luke Shaw at the club last month speculation has been surrounding the France international even though he put pen-to-paper on a one-year deal recently.

There is still significant interest in Evra, though, and he could still find himself on the move in the coming weeks.

United to miss out on Kroos as he agrees £25m move to Real Madrid

United look set to miss out on Toni Kroos after a year-long pursuit of the Bayern Munich star as he edges toward a £35m move to Real Madrid, the Daily Star reports.

The Premier League side have been linked with the German international in each of the last three transfer windows, but have failed to come up with an offer tempting enough to prize him away.

And they now look to have missed their chance as he closes in on a move to the Spanish Capital.
