And that’s something he will find at Old Trafford with Van Gaal’s side reportedly close to sealing a move for the winger after activating his £22m release clause.

Argentine goalkeeper Sergio Romero is expected to arrive in Seattle soon to undergo a medical with Manchester United, according to Sky Italia.
Louis van Gaal has revealed Victor Valdes will be sold after he refused to play in a reserve team game last season.
His contract expired on June 30 and he is now considering his options.
If United can keep hold of De Gea, even if it’s just for the final year of his contract, and bring Romero in as back-up then they’ll have two excellent goalkeepers to choose from for the coming campaign.
Louis Van Gaal worked with Romero at AZ Alkmaar between 2007 and 2009 and sees him as a potential replacement for David de Gea, who continues to be linked with a move to Real Madrid this summer, despite having been the part of United’s squad in the ongoing preseason tour of America.
Long-term target Nicolas Otamendi has told Valencia he wants his future settled by the time his club’s pre season starts on July 27th.
“No, there’s no truth, nothing”, said Martinez when asked about a deal for Evans. I have said that already.

The Mirror also report that Mason Holgate, the young Barnsely defender who has been with United on trial, has sufficiently impressed Van Gaal that he will be signed this summer.
