Man Utd Transfers: 10 World Cup Stars To Target This Summer

2. Toni Kroos

With Toni Kroos heading into the final year of his contract at Bayern Munich and still little sign of him penning a renewal, the midfielder has emerged as a United transfer target this summer. And the player himself has given us enough encouragement to make a bid, refusing to rule out a move away from the Allianz Arena by saying only: "it is my future, and my decision," when pressed on where he's going next. Known for his passing accuracy and his ability to set up goals, like Rakitic and Fabregas, Kroos is seen as an ideal replacement for Paul Scholes and as such has become one of our biggest summer targets, with the uncertainty of his future set to rumble on throughout the remainder of the transfer window. Kroos will line up for Germany at the World Cup and could use the tournament to either engineer better terms on a new contract at Bayern or to put himself in the shop window as interested parties wait in the wings.
