Manchester United:Louis van Gaal wants a creative midfielder but who should he sign?

The United boss feels he has been forced to play Wayne Rooney in a deeper role because of a lack of options.
“Signing a creative player should be our priority this summer,” said Van Gaal. “I'm looking for balance and I need it in midfield. Wayne is playing in midfield because there is no one else.”
While that will be disappointing news to the likes of Ander Herrera, United supporters will be encouraged by the prospect of a big-name arrival in time for the start of next season.
But who are the candidates? Here we pick out some of the star names from the continent who could transform the United midfield…
Ilkay Gundogan (Borussia Dortmund)
It’s been a difficult season for Borussia Dortmund but the diminutive 24-year-old has largely been spared from criticism with supporters feeling the Germany international has lacked support in the centre of the pitch. Gundogan missed last summer’s World Cup through injury but prior to that disappointment had established himself as one of Europe’s most promising playmakers with his efficient use of the ball and technical expertise. With Dortmund set to miss out on Champions League football next season, this could be one player actively seeking a move in the summer.
Koke (Atletico Madrid)
Herrera might have struggled to impress Van Gaal, but if the Dutchman is keen to go back to Spain in search of a solution then the Atletico midfielder would seem a good fit. Koke has emerged as a regular starter in Vicente del Bosque’s national team and is a combative figure with quality on the ball. The 23-year-old ranks behind only Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Denis Cheryshev for La Liga assists this season. Although a proud Atleti man, his current club would be unable to match the salary United can offer and that means a switch to Manchester cannot be ruled out.
Paul Pogba (Juventus)
Pogba is the prodigal son for many United fans left frustrated by the way the Frenchman slipped through their fingers after impressing as a teenager. Still only 21, his emergence at Juventus has been as impressive as it was predictable and his six Serie A goals from a deep role only hints at his significance to the Italian champions. Chelsea have proven with Nemanja Matic that there is little sense in being proud when it comes to paying big for the one that got away and if Van Gaal thinks Pogba is the man then the player could be convinced he has unfinished business at United.
Bastian Schweinsteiger (Bayern Munich)
If the United boss wants an experienced option at the heart of his midfield then Schweinsteiger must surely rank near the top of his list. Of course, Van Gaal has worked with the World Cup winner during his time at Bayern and played a key role in completing the 30-year-old’s transformation from flying winger to deep-lying playmaker. Schweinsteiger’s effective use of the ball coupled with an ability to drive forwards when appropriate would make him a good fit if he can prove his fitness. With the player no longer an automatic starter under Pep Guardiola, there will be speculation.
Kevin Strootman (Roma)
Strootman was the man identified by Van Gaal as the fulcrum of his World Cup midfield and deemed so pivotal to the system that the then Netherlands boss even abandoned his plans once the Roma midfielder was ruled out through injury. Naturally, the 25-year-old has been linked with a move to Manchester United ever since. Two assists in his first three starts upon his return was evidence of his class, but a setback against Fiorentina last month means Strootman is injured again and Van Gaal will have to wait to see if the player can prove his fitness over a prolonged period.
Marco Verratti (Paris St Germain)
The 22-year-old is one of the most sought-after midfielders in Europe and would appear to fit Van Gaal’s criteria of creating from deep. Verratti can occupy a holding role and his 91.3 per cent pass completion rate this year is impressive, but that doesn’t prevent him from making things happen further forwards. Only winger Lucas Moura has completed more dribbles for PSG and he also ranks top when it comes to through-balls for the Ligue 1 champions. Arsenal and Barcelona have been linked with a move for the Italy international and it would be a challenge for executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward to pull off this deal.
Arturo Vidal (Juventus)
The supposed pursuit of the powerhouse Chile international was one of the sagas of the summer on social media and Vidal’s name will crop up again now that Van Gaal has outlined his intention to enter the market for a midfielder. The 27-year-old’s form has failed to hit the heights this season but he’s still weighed in with six Serie A goals in a team that sits seven points clear at the top of the table. If Juventus are prepared to deal at a sum considerably less than would have been quoted last summer then perhaps United will be tempted after all.

Chelsea: Jose Mourinho has twice turned down the offer to coach PSG

PSG approached Mourinho in 2011 and again two years later, with the former Porto and Inter Milan boss travelling to Qatar for discussions.
The owners of the French champions are desperate to dominate European football, and former midfielder Leonardo was also involved in the talks with the Portuguese.
“I know the PSG project well, I know it well because when they start this project with the owner, the president and Leonardo, I was to be the coach,” said Mourinho.
“I met them in Qatar, so I know the project well. The project was to start dominating in France, to dominate in Europe. The domination in France is there, they are champions, champions, champions.
“They are in the League Cup final, they are in the quarter-finals of the French Cup, they are two points behind the leaders so the domination of France is there.
“They want to dominate in Europe too and, to be fair, you look to Paris in the last two seasons in the Champions League and they lost in the quarter-finals, once narrowly to Barcelona and last season against Chelsea in the last second.
“So they know and they feel they are there. They are there. Paris is a big team with big ambitions.”
Mourinho was tempted to join PSG, but he opted to stay in Spain as he felt he had unfinished business with Real Madrid.
He said: “Because I was in Real Madrid and it was a real ambition for me to be champion in Spain, England and Italy.
“It was a big challenge for me and a big challenge to compete directly against the best, Barcelona, probably the best team in Europe for the last decade for sure. It was not the right moment for me to go.”

Manchester United insists the club must sign a creative midfielder this summer

The Dutchman has tried a variety of combinations in an attempt to find balance in midfield, but has been forced to play forward Wayne Rooney out of position in order to do so.
Van Gaal, whose side travel to Preston in the FA Cup fifth round on Monday night, insists Rooney is happy to play in midfield but admits he is playing there because “there is no one else”.
“Signing a creative player should be our priority this summer,” the 63-year-old said. “I'm looking for balance and I need it in midfield.
“In the last few games I’ve played Adnan Januzaj and Angel Di Maria in the midfield positions, and you need a certain balance for that kind of creative player.
"Radamel Falcao and Robin van Persie are also creative players so then you have four of them, and you still have to look for balance in your team.
 
Louis van Gaal on Wayne Rooney
“Wayne is playing in midfield because there is no one else. He's happy to do so otherwise he should come to me and say he's not, but he never does. He's always friendly to me and wants to perform.
"But of course when the whole world is writing that he has to be in the striker's position then he will be thinking ‘hey, maybe'. He’s human."
United have inevitably been linked with a string of midfield players since Van Gaal took over, most notably the Dutch international Kevin Strootman of Roma and former United academy graduate Paul Pogba, who is at Juventus.
Pogba’s agent Mino Raiola told Sky Sports News last month that he anticipates a fierce bidding war for the France international’s signing this summer and insisted the player is not upset with United for previously letting him go.
Raiola said: “Paul has always said he is not angry with Manchester United – you need to move on.
“There is no personal grudge. On the contrary, he holds Manchester United very dear and has very nice memories there.”

Chelsea transfer latest: Douglas Costa begs Shakhtar Donetsk

Target: Will Costa end up at Stamford Bridge

Douglas Costa has begged Shakhtar Donetsk not to price him out of a move to Chelsea with the Blues still in for Juan Cuadrado.
Fiorentina have already rejected an approach from the Blues and insist Cuadrado will not leave for less than his £26.8million release clause. The 24-year-old wideman has made it clear to the club that he wants to move to west London.
Costa, however, has revealed he has also already spoken to Shakhtar, asking the Ukrainian club to show flexibility on the £30million they want for him.
He said: “I put my situation to them and they said they would try to help me. Now, we’ll see if it comes to an agreement.”
Costa also admitted he is desperate to play for Jose Mourinho. He said: “To play at Chelsea is a dream for any player... but really, what catches my eye is the coach

Manchester United transfers latest: Kevin Strootman update, Paul Pogba hope

Manchester United transfers: Kevin Strootman update, Paul Pogba hope

Here is a round-up of the latest rumours involving The Reds as we enter the final week of the January transfer window.


Kevin Strootman limped off 34 minutes into Roma's match with Fiorentina with a knee injury and coach Rudi Garcia has admitted it is "still a delicate area".
The knock will scupper any chance of United signing the Dutchman this month, an inevitable outcome given Strootman only returned from his nine-month lat-off in November.
With Darren Fletcher in the departure lounge, Louis van Gaal was believed to be keen on recruiting a defensive midfielder this window but is going to have to wait.
Another midfielder United fans are pining for, Paul Pogba, "has a price", though.
United went toe-to-toe with Real Madrid for Raphael Varane in 2011 before they ended up signing Phil Jones and The Reds face a similar duel for Athletic Bilbao's Aymeric Laporte.
Laporte, 20, has emerged as one of the most impressive young centre halves in Europe over the last year and has a buyout clause of £31.5m.
The likelihood is United will be in the market for two centre-backs, one up-and-coming - like Laporte - and an established defender, such as Mats Hummels.
Plenty of Reds would be happy with right-back Nathaniel Clyne coming into Old Trafford, but the Southampton defender is negotiating a new contract at St Mary's.
The England international, 23, is out of contract next year.
And Louis van Gaal blocked Adnan Januzaj's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain.   

Louis van Gaal's Manchester United signing (shopping) list

James Cooper believes there could be some stellar names on their way to Old Trafford. "There are almost limitless resources at the moment when you bear in mind Adidas are coming on board in June with a huge kit sponsorship deal worth more than £700m," he said.
"The summer is going to be spectacular. There is an awful lot of money to spend and there is a list of players."
So, with big funds at his disposal, who might Van Gaal target? Defensive options are clearly a priority but United have been linked with plenty of attacking flair, too. Here are a selection of players who might be on Van Gaal's wish list...
Cristiano Ronaldo – Forward, Real Madrid
Cristiano Ronaldo - could he return to Old Trafford?
Cristiano Ronaldo: one of Old Trafford’s favourite sons. The two-time Ballon d’Or winner, who helped Real Madrid to La Decima last season, declared in 2013 he wanted to retire at the Spanish club. However, the Portuguese’s love for United cannot be underestimated and with Van Gaal set to have huge sums at his disposal, could an audacious bid be on the way? At 29 Ronaldo seems to be getting better and better. Would Real seriously consider selling their prized asset? For United, there is only one way to find out…
Lionel Messi – Forward, Barcelona 

Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo hat-tricks in 2014
It has been said it would be “impossible” for any club to sign Lionel Messi while Barcelona still want him. And who could blame the Catalan club for clinging onto one of the greatest players of all time, who recently scored his 30th hat-trick for the club? However, speculation continues about the four-time Ballon d’Or winners’ future and, earlier this month, the man himself said: "I don’t know where I will be next season". With United’s £750m kit deal with Adidas – Messi’s sponsors - on the horizon, could a mega bid be on the way?
Gareth Bale – Forward, Real Madrid
Gareth Bale - United keen on former Spurs star
It’s no secret Manchester United made a substantial bid for Gareth Bale’s services before the Wales star signed a world-record breaking deal with Real Madrid, and there’s no question the former Tottenham man would still be welcomed at Old Trafford. Bale silenced critics who suggested he wouldn’t cut it on the big stage with goals in the Copa del Rey and Champions League finals in his first season with Real and United would now find it very difficult to lure him away from the club he dreamed of playing for as a boy. "We would never listen to any offer, no matter the amount," Real president Florentino Perez said recently. However, it remains to be seen if Real would stand by that statement, should United test their resolve with a significant bid.
Mats Hummels - Defender, Borussia Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund captain Mats Hummels said loyalty is important to him, but would not promise that he would be at the club forever.
Manchester United have conceded just two more goals than Chelsea’s respected backline in the Premier League this season but, following the exit of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic last summer, it is felt Van Gaal needs to sign quality defenders to supplement his current crop of centre-halves. World Cup-winning Germany defender Hummels is considered to be a major target. The Borussia Dortmund captain has won two Bundesliga titles and picked up a Champions League runners-up medal since a 4m euro move from Bayern Munich in 2009. Dortmund’s struggles this season - they are in the relegation zone - may improve United’s chances of convincing him to head to Old Trafford, but the 26-year-old said recently: "Would I play in Dortmund without the Champions League? I do not think qualification for the Champions League will be the only requirement to be happy."
Kevin Strootman – Midfielder, Roma
Kevin Strootman - Roma box-to-box midfielder
Likened to Roy Keane, midfielder Kevin Strootman is a 24-year-old with a fast-growing reputation. A favourite of Van Gaal when the United boss was in charge of Netherlands, the box-to-box Roma man recently returned after eight months out with a cruciate ligament injury which kept him out of the World Cup. However, fit and firing again now, Strootman, who helped Roma to second in Serie A last season, did suggest recently he still had plenty to prove in Italy. "'I’ve signed up for five years but so far I’ve only been playing for six or seven months," he told Sky Italia. “I want to play and help the team. That’s important to me. If I spoke about other clubs that would be disrespectful, and I don’t want to do that.”
Nathaniel Clyne – Defender, Southampton
Nathaniel Clyne
Attacking full-back Nathaniel Clyne could be an ideal addition to Van Gaal’s squad, should the Dutchman persist with his 3-5-2 formation. The Southampton defender has impressed in the Premier League this season and earned his first England cap in November, while he demonstrated an eye for goal with a stunning long-range winner against Arsenal in the Capital One Cup. With Rafael making just six starts under Van Gaal in the league this season, 23-year-old right-back Clyne could be on his radar. The defender has been offered an extension to his Saints deal, which runs until 2016, but says he will wait until April before deciding on whether to put pen to paper.
Marquinhos – Defender, PSG
Marquinhos - young Brazilian talent
Marquinhos made headlines last week when it was reported PSG would only sell him for 112m euros. While it is unlikely United will stump up that sum for the 20-year-old, the club have been linked with a move for the centre-back. The Brazilian has had a meteoric rise to the top of world football. After signing for Roma in 2012 following just six league appearances for boyhood club Corinthians, Marquinhos became the fifth most expensive defender in history when he completed a 31.4m euro switch to PSG a season later. With a Ligue 1 title and French Cup win in his first campaign with the Parisians, Marquinhos’ stock continues to rise.
Axel Witsel – Midfielder, Zenit St Petersburg
With Angel di Maria and Juan Mata among his attacking midfield options, you may think Van Gaal is well covered in that area, but a bid for talented Belgian Axel Witsel may prove tempting. The 26-year-old has over 50 caps for his country and has won trophies in Belgium and Portugal, while his current club Zenit are on course to win the Russian league. Signed for £32.5m in September 2012, Witsel won’t come cheap, but he has recently expressed his admiration for United. “I want to play in one of the top clubs in Europe one day,” he said recently. “It’s true that I like the Premier League, because it is one of the best leagues in the world. A lot of my colleagues play there, but we will see. I have always liked Manchester United from when I was young.”
Paul Pogba – Midfielder, Juventus
Paul Pogba - has impressed with Juve since leaving United
The one that got away. Paul Pogba made just three appearances for United before departing for Juventus when his contract expired in 2012. The Frenchman has since gone on to win two Serie A titles, the 2013 U20 World Cup (where he won the Golden Ball as the best player) and was voted best young player at the 2014 World Cup. Sir Alex Ferguson was less than complimentary when Pogba left Old Trafford - "I don’t think he showed us any respect at all" - but Pogba recently said "I love the club" when asked about United and there were even reports in the Italian press Van Gaal had made a bid. Chelsea are also reportedly interested in bringing him back to the Premier League.
Nicolas Otamendi – Defender, Valencia
Nicolas Otamendi
Another option at centre-back could be Valencia and Argentina defender Nicolas Otamendi. However, the 26-year-old, who won three league titles with Porto before moving to Spain last February for 12m euros, has a £38m buy-out clause and last week Valencia rejected a £27m offer for him from an unnamed club. Otamendi looks set to stay in La Liga this month but a summer deal could materialise, with United’s Darren Fletcher possibly going the other way. Valencia are said to be interested in adding the experienced Scotsman to their squad.
Paulo Dybala – Striker, Palermo
Paulo Dybala - compared with Sergio Aguero
"We have Paulo Dybala, the new Sergio Aguero," declared the Palermo president upon capturing the Argentine youngster from Instituto in 2012. With 10 goals before the winter break in Serie A this season, 21-year-old Dybala’s reputation continues to grow, although whether he can match the level reached by Manchester City’s main man remains to be seen. However, with uncertainty over whether Van Gaal will move to make Radamel Falcao’s loan a permanent deal at the end of the campaign, Dybala could be a younger alternative.
Bruno Martins Indi – Defender, Porto
"Spiritually, I still have contact with Van Gaal. I think about him and I think he also thinks about me," Bruno Martins Indi recently said. The 22-year-old centre-back/left-back played at the World Cup under Van Gaal as Netherlands finished third, and seems keen on the idea of reuniting with his former national team coach at some point. Martins Indi transferred to Porto from Feyenoord in July 2014 but would be a cheaper defensive option than the likes of Hummels or Marquinhos.
