With just two weeks before the Transfer window opens once again, here are the top five transfer rumours doing the rounds in today's papers.
#1 Manchester United eyeing double defensive swoop
With Rio Ferdinand and Nemaja Vidic on their way out of United, the Red Devils are looking at 22-year-old Dutch international Bruno Martins Indi and 25-year-old German international Mats Hummels in a double swoop, to replace the outgoing duo.
Feyenoord’s Martins Indi, who has been a key figure in Holland’s progress to the World Cup already has 13 caps to his name. The Dutchman’s stock is well and truly on the rise and with Louis Van Gaal to be confirmed as United’s manager this week, he might well be on his way to Old Trafford.
Along with him, a key component of Borussia Dortmund’s back-to-back Bundesliga winning squad, Hummels is also set to join him at Old Trafford. With Luke Shaw already lined up to replace Patrice Evra, the duo look set to star in a new look back four filled with youth and experience.
