Manchester United got their summer spending underway with a £25million move for Memphis Depay yesterday. The Dutchman is expected to be the first of at least a few new signings this window, and Louis van Gaal is keen to get his business done early.
According to the Daily Mail, Manchester United are now ready to make a move for Mats Hummels, with Borussia Dortmund expecting a formal bid from the Old Trafford side within the next few days.
The 26-year old is one of the finest defenders in the world, and he’s a player I’d love to see at Old Trafford next season. If United really have ambitions to succeed domestically and in Europe, then our defence certainly needs a lot of work. Mats Hummels would be a great start.
Mats Hummels’ teammate Ilkay Gundogan is another who is expected to join United this summer, with Sky Sports suggesting that an agreement in terms of a transfer fee between the two clubs is close.
