Going Dutch: Blind impressed under Van Gaal at this summer's World Cup
With Patrice Evra all but out the door United are in the market for another left-back to compliment new signing Luke Shaw.
After impressing at the World Cup under Van Gaal it has been unsurprising to see Dutchman Daley Blind strongly linked with a move.
And United will have been boosted by comments from Ajax boss Frank De Boer that he, along with the rest of the Eredivisie champions squad, is up for sale this summer.
While he is hopeful he will stay to be a cornerstone of the team he conceded that everyone had their price.
"Personally, I don’t think so," he told AT5 when asked if Blind would leave .
"Everyone is obviously for sale, but we feel that those three players, the World Cup players [Blind, Jasper Cillessen and Joel Veltman], with a few guys in the current squad, should be the water carriers of this squad.
"We want to build a core with guys like Davy Klassen, Stefano Denswil, Ricardo van Rhijn and Ruben Ligeon. All guys who have been at Ajax since childhood."
On their way?
With Van Gaal ready to overhaul the playing staff a number current squad members could be on the move this summer.

He is the face of terror. A ruthless leader with a twisted ideology. And the sadistic architect of a campaign of mayhem and misery. And yet, very little is known about Abubakar Shekau, the leader of Boko Haram. He operates in the shadows, leaving his underlings to orchestrate his repulsive mandates. He resurfaces every once in a while in videotaped messages to mock the impotence of the Nigerian military. And he uses his faith to recruit the impressionable and the disenfranchised to his cause. He is a religious scholar Shekau was born in Shekau village that borders Niger. He studied under a cleric and then attended Borno State College of Legal and Islamic Studies for higher studies on Islam. That’s why he’s also known as ‘Darul Tawheed,’ which translates to an expert in monotheism, or the oneness of Allah. Place of birth: Yobe State
