Louis Van Gaal’s appointment as Manchester United manager has seen a plethora of German internationals being linked with the Red devils. The 62 year old current Dutch manager wants to bring the glory back to Manchester United and we here at Soccersouls have picked out three German players who will make his task much easier.
1. Mats Hummels
Matt HummelsThe first thing that Van Gaal needs to shore up at old Trafford is to the address the wafer thin defense of the Red Devils outfit. With the departure of Nemanja Vidic to Inter Milan and Rio Ferdinand deciding to hang up his boots, a potential void seems to gape up at the heart of the centre line. A majority of English tabloids have linked United with Borussia Dortmund’s Mats Hummels who after an injury raved campaign for the yellow and black is ready to lead the line in the World Cup. The 25 year old is a superb defender who possess brilliant tackling abilities and his concentration at the back is beyond imaginable. Moreover Hummels is a ball loving defender who has a wide range of passing abilities which will enable United to play from the back and its his imposing figure that will give the Red Devils an indirect threat from set pieces.
