If there is one department Manchester United are desperate to reinforce this summer then it is the central midfield.
United have been horrific in midfield last season with the likes of Carrick, Fletcher, Cleverly and big money signing Fellaini failing to perform well.
Hence, the Red Devils have been linked with numerous midfielders. Toni Kroos perhaps topped the chart as per rumors that have been fluctuating to a large extent.
One day, Van Gaal is the catalyst behind Kroos deal, other day, Van Gaal is the one who calls it off and the player also denies interest. Nevertheless, there are other midfield targets apart from Kroos as well.
These include the likes of William Carvalho, Strootman, Vidal and Fabregas.
According to Daily Star, Manchester United are closing in on luring top midfield stars in Vidal and Fabregas this summer.
Vidal is rated around €42m and is currently one of the best players in his position. The Chilean netted 18 times for the Italian giants Juventus last season.
On the other hand, Fabregas is not wanted at Barcelona anymore and the club is looking to sell him to any side who meets his release clause €40m.
The former Arsenal star scored 13 goals and provided 22 assists for Catalan side last season still he is deemed not good enough.
One thing is for sure, United need more than a single player to solve the midfield conundrum. Fans will be anxiously waiting to find out the midfield partnership that Louis van Gaal desires at Manchester United.

am just tired of Manchester united transfer rubbish….
this stuped of the highest order, we cant sign players easly? there must be xxx yyyy zzz b4 complition any recruit? kroos i thot is in,, now is gona, next u wil hear shaw heading to chelsea. nonsense utd,,
Everything about united transfer news is never to believe( always disappointment).
I already said that any transfer as regards man utd should not be held as true until you see the player bearing the club’s jersey. Today you hear rumours, tomrrow some stupid reports confirm another thing, to hell with them all, Don’t raise your hopes too much fans
Learn from other transfers, they were not publicised like this before being signed for the club, RVP, Fellaini, Mata, Kagawa
Vidal would be a great singing, i’d still rather get Pogba back though, still cant beleive we let him go, dont beleive nothing till its done, why would the old lady sell him now? When they could wait till after the world cup more than likely to get more money, and Conte is stayen so I doubt they’d sell there best players building on a good team that they already have,
Last I saw william carvalho done deal seal we got him I was happy because his better than carrick now united still biding for him only ill believe united when I see the player with van gaal with united jersey on
Man United want to sign every best player in Europe! am not used to these. David Gill was a real man when comes to transfers. Ed Woodward is a mess.
Why Kroos misfortune again? Just too tired with this whole saga. We really need Kroos. The Glazers are tired with this club. This Edwoodward is a failure.
Man United want to sign every best player in Europe! am not used to these. David Gill was a real man when comes to transfers. Ed Woodward is a mess. United also leave youngsters go, that’s why they will never find something better than what they lost(Pogba)
All are rubbish about United transfer! This Van Gaal want to do David Moyes thing!! Who knows whether he is going to be worse than Moyes!!! Now-now, you want to bring the players that are already tired. What sneider and Robbin going to do for United, thay are aged. We need fresh blood like Kroos and co. Please.
Am just too tired of all these transfer saga. Ed Woodward is only an expert in commercial activities for ManUtd. Is one information today, tomorrow is either it is dispelled or you hear the player refutting such news as a rumor. It is better they do thier businesses secretly and concretly before they give thier numerous fans deals that has been completed, sealled and signed. To me, am totally disgusted. They cannot be putting we fans in disarray. If Kroos should go, i will not be happy with athose concerned with our signings, that is it.
