Manchester United favourites to sign €78m duo ahead of rivals Chelsea, Liverpool & Manchester City

LVG to seal double deal ahead of rivals!

Manchester United look the favourites to sign two players wanted by Chelsea for a combined fee of around £55m, according to latest reports.

As well as selling Angel Di Maria to Paris Saint-Germain, the Red Devils could still be busy bringing new players in this summer, with Louis van Gaal ready to open his chequebook for these two big names:

1) Pedro (Barcelona)

Set to cost around £21m, Pedro looks more than likely to now join Manchester United from Barcelona, though a deal could be delayed until after the club’s UEFA Super Cup final clash with Sevilla. The Spanish international has also been linked with Chelsea and Liverpool this summer.
