Manchester United fans have endured a particularly uninteresting season thus far. The Reds supporters have been bemoaning the relatively poor quality of their squad. Van Gaal, despite spending a fortune in the previous transfer windows, will be keen to strengthen his squad prior to the 2016-17 campaign – there are areas that need improving in order to win both the Premier League and Champions League titles.
Manchester United seem set for a busy summer, whether that be under Louis Van Gaal or any another manager (maybe even Jose Mourinho), and it appears the main focus of their transfer activity will be leaning around Germany.
We’ve compiled a list of three players from Bundesliga who Manchester United should assign their scouts to closely monitor as soon as possible.
- Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang
Sticking with a striker argument, Manchester United are looking to beat Arsenal to a £70m Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang deal. Whether such a deal materialises remains to be seen, with Borussia Dortmund inflexible they won’t sell, but a high price could change that standpoint.
The player from Gabon has hit a remarkable 22-goals in the Bundesliga this season, helping Dortmund challenge Bayern Munich for the Bundesliga title, and his form has seen him set up himself as one of the leading strikers in Europe. If United get a deal done for the 26-year-old, their attacking ability would improve beneficially.
