Louis van Gaal is leaving no stone unturned in trying to shore up Manchester United’s defence next season. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, Bayern Munich centre-back Jerome Boateng is on the radar of the Red Devils.
The German international, who was instrumental in his national side’s World Cup win last year in Brazil, will be difficult to lure away from the Allianz Arena. But such is Man United’s intent in signing a top-quality defender that they could well make an irrefusable offer to the reigning Bundesliga winners. It remains unclear how much he will cost.
