FULL BACKS IN DEMAND

Louis Van Gaal has revealed his longing for full backs in a recent press conference. And he's right, Manchester United are lacking full backs. This season and last season, Ashley Young has been shifted into the role of a left back. However, Ashley Young has been ruled out for a very long period of time, after picking up an injury. This means that the only full back that is fully fit is Matteo Darmian. Louis Van Gaal said: "I need full-backs. We are looking for a level but clubs don't want to sell. It is difficult. You think it's so easy." But it was easy selling Patrice Evra and Rafael. But we need to move on, who is fit to add depth to our full backs? Here's my list:
1. Jose Luis Gaya
2. Ricardo Rodriguez
3. Mattia De Sciglio
4. Fabio Coentrao (We might here this one in the papers non-stop!)
5. Seamus Coleman

Is there any players that I have missed out? comment below! I really enjoy reading them.

LYON SIGN RAFAEL, PSG SIGN DI MARIA

Lyon have officially completed the signing of Manchester United's Brazilian Right Back, Rafael da Silva. It looked as if Rafael didn't suit Louis Van Gaal's philosophy. Last season he spent most of the time playing for the reserves team. And after the signing of Matteo Darmian that Rafael is certainly not in his plans. A sad loss, he was favoured very well by Sir Alex Ferguson and was very energetic and very quick. Sad. Also PSG have also signed Angel Di Maria, I don'
t really want to say much about that.

MANCHESTER UNITED COMPLETE SIGNING OF DARMIAN!

Darmian has completed his move to Manchester United and is now officially a Manchester United player which could see Antonio Valencia or Rafael Da Silva leaving the football club. Darmian commented: "Its a dream come true to join Manchester United," and its a privilege to have such a versatile defender! Bastian Schweinsteiger is expected to have his medical today and complete his move to Manchester United.

MANCHESTER UNITED TO SIGN DARMIAN?

Previously this summer Nathaniel Clyne was linked to Manchester United, but i didn't see him as a Manchester United player, in my opinion i viewed him as overrated. He then signed for Liverpool, ofcourse,
but i wasn't bothered because i would have wanted right backs such as Mattia De Sciglio or Matteo Darmian who has been previously linked with Manchester United. When i saw reports from BBC and Sky Sports that Matteo Darmian has accepted personal terms with Manchester United, i was ecstatic! Anyways enough of story time! Matteo Darmian has accepted personal terms with Manchester United and with his agent, but according to Sky Italia, Serie A club "Torino have asked 20 million Euros  and are waiting for the final "Ok" from United." Manchester United have been using alternatives to fill that RB role such as Antonio Valencia and lack of playing time with Rafael seems as if he is on his way out and Louis Van Gaal will be looking for a replacement. Matteo Darmian fills in that missing role and is a versatile defender.

Manchester United keeping a close eye on Matteo Darmian

Louis Van Gaal is hoping to sign a Right Back in January as maybe a back up for the lonely Rafael Da Silva and 24 year old Matteo Darmian could be an option. Although we are already to sign Dani Alves next summer, Matteo Darmian could be a younger and cheaper option in contract talks but not to sign him. Torino are demanding a price tag of 15 million for the defender. Matteo Darmian is a brilliant right back and also featured for the Italy National team in the World Cup last year in Brazil.
