Though a deal did not happen in the previous transfer window, Spanish outlet Fichajes have now claimed that Louis van Gaal’s side will now try to push a move through. The report further adds that though Lazio are not keen on selling their prized possession, who signed a long-term contract with them, the Premier League giants are desperate and will still make a bid.

At present, the 22-year-old attacking midfielder is priced at around £14m by TransferMarkt, which will not really be a problem for the English giants. Van Gaal feels the need to add more attacking options soon and will look to bring in Anderson to strengthen his squad.
