Man Utd move for Inter's Fredy Guarin following Toni Kroos' Old Trafford rejection
LOUIS VAN GAAL has turned his attention to Inter Milan midfielder Fredy Guarin after Bayern Munich's Toni Kroos turned down a move to Old Trafford.
Manchester United are in desperate need of central midfield reinforcements following last season's disastrous campaign.
Tom Cleverley has been slated by United regulars for his poor displays, Darren Fletcher has broken his toe just months after returning from a long-term bowel problem while Ryan Giggs has retired.
Colombia international Guarin has attracted van Gaal's interest due to his direct style of play and with Inter looking at a number of midfielders such as Chelsea's John Obi Mikel and Rubin Kazan's Yann M'Vila it seems that he is free to leave for Old Trafford.
Corriere Dello Sport are reporting that United could pick him up for as little as £12m if they decide to firm up their interest.
