Manchester United are now targeting another midfielder Axel Witsel for the summer
move, according to latest reports.

list despite of closing on Ilkay Gundogan move.

and the recent week’s reports have claimed that his move is now coming closer every

midfielders Ander Herrera, Marouane Fellaini and Michael Carrick all have been
impressive for the Red Devils. But still the Dutch boss LVG is eyeing to strengthen his midfield..
Witsel
who plays for Russian side Zenit St Petersburg is also planning to leave for
the Premier League football.
The
Belgian player could make a fine partnership with his countryman Fellaini.
Witsel
told: “The voices of the market? I know
nothing.”
He
hinted a move by saying that he loves Premier League and wants to play in it.
“Sure, I love the Premier League and
United ever since I was little. Sooner or later I want to play in one of the
best clubs in Europe.”
The
26-year-old is a versatile player, he can play in variety of midfield positions.
Untied
boss Louis van Gaal who is eyeing to fight for the Premier League title next season
will also be selling several of his players including Tom Cleverley who is currently on loan at Aston Villa.
