This will undoubtedly prove to be his best season yet and Van Gaal may want a striker who guarantees more than Batshuayi can. United’s goalless draw against Chelsea was their seventh of a troubled season and sixth at Old Trafford.

Aides have said that the campaign is focused on surpassing 1 million donors by the end of the year.
