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

7. Alexis Sanchez

With Borussia Dortmund winger Marco Reus set to snub a move to Old Trafford this summer, it would be prudent to look at alternatives and one option is Alexis Sanchez. The Barcelona attacker - representing Chile at the World Cup - has struggled to secure a regular starting berth at the Nou Camp, leading to reports that he is angling for a move away from the Spanish giants. The 25-year-old has long been a target of ours, with former manager Sir Alex Ferguson reportedly trying to sign him twice during his illustrious reign at the club. And he's back on our radar again, scoring an impressive 18 La Liga goals this season, along with ten assists. Sanchez would be a welcome addition at Old Trafford given we are weak in the wide areas, with both Nani and Ashley Young enduring largely-disappointing campaigns, and as in defence, this is another area that needs targeting by van Gaal.
