Manchester United hot on the heels of Athletico Star

Manchester United are certainly on the hunt for an attacking player or four and have, as we understand things, last night registered an interest in Athletico Madrid star arda Turan. No official offer has gone in from the Manchester giants as yet, but the interest seems real and United look ready to spend big.

According to the player’s agent, Ahmet Bulut, six teams have enquired about the Turkish international’s availability - including French champions Paris Saint-Germain and Italian giants AC Milan - with talks underway with three interested parties already.

The player would fit perfectly into Van Gaal's system at United and add the extra creative spark that United were lacking last season. Meanwhile, young star Saidy Janko is set to join Celtic on a permanent deal and Phil Jones is closing in on a new contract at Old Trafford.
