Van Gaal targets German duo
The Express are also claiming that United’s summer spending spree will include German international duo Mats Hummels and Marco Reus.
United are long term admirers of Borussia Dortmund centre-back Hummels, and are desperate for reinforcements in the position following the departures of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic.
Hummels club teammate Reus had apparently set his heart on a move to Barcelona, but was angered when the Catalan side appeared to decide on a move for Luis Suarez rather than him. The fallout from the moves collapse has now left United favourites for the players signature.
