2. Stephan De Vrij:
With the departure of Nemanja Vidic to Inter Milan and Rio Ferdinand’s decision to leave at the end of last season, a certain void remains in the Old Trafford side’s defense. According to reports, as per directions of Van Gaal, Manchester United are very close to sign Stefan De Vrij after possibly agreeing a transfer fee for the 22 year old. It has also been quoted that the deal will get completed once the formal bid gets accepted. It is clear with United’s moves in the transfer market that Woodward wants to seal the deals asap before the pre-season training.
