Spending spree continues as Manchester United are set to add world class quartet next summer with £150million

United chiefs believe Louis Van Gal is the right man for another domination of the Premier League with an array of world class players 

Manchester United will hand Louis Van Gal a whooping sum of £150million next summer to complete the EPL Galatico resurgence at Old Trafford.

United are confident they are heading in the right direction under Louis van Gaal and want to copy the Real Madrid blueprint by having an elite player in every position.

After backing the Dutchman by making six signings last summer — including smashing the British transfer record to sign Angel di Maria for £59.7m — the club are preparing for another massive investment, with senior sources insisting that the rebuilding has only just begun.

Mats Hummels has been strongly linked with a move to Old trafford next summer

United have spent £215m on players since September 2013 in a bid to reverse the alarming decline of the past 18 months, and another spree on the scale of last summer would take their investment beyond £350m.

Van Gaal has made centre back, right back and winger his main target areas. United have not ruled out making signings in the January transfer window — as was the case with Juan Mata’s £37.1m arrival from Chelsea at the start of this year — but suspect they will have to wait until the summer to find the right players.

The list includes Barcelona right back Dani Alves, Bayern Munich winger Arjen Robben, central defenders Mats Hummels of Borussia Dortmund and Diego Godin of Atletico Madrid, and Roma defensive midfielder Kevin Strootman.

Dani Alves is among the top players on United's radar

United also have a big decision to make over striker Radamel Falcao, who will cost a further £46m on top of his £6m loan fee if his move from Monaco is made permanent. The Colombia striker has struggled with injury so far, scoring just once. A fresh influx of signings will be followed by another major clear-out after 20 players were cut from the first-team squad last summer.

Arjen Robben could move to Old Trafford to re-unite with Van Gal

Reserve goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard could be the first to go in January, paving the way for United to offer a contract to former Barcelona No 1 Victor Valdes who has been training at Carrington as he recuperates from a serious knee-ligament injury.

United have decided to keep Anderson until the end of his contract in the summer rather than give him a £1.4m pay-off next month, but a number of Brazilian clubs are interested in taking the midfielder back to his homeland and Old Trafford sources are optimistic a buyer can be found.

Roma's Kevin Strootman is could also be set for a move

However, United are satisfied with the way Van Gaal has overhauled the squad and remain confident they can return to the European elite with the right investment and approach.

Despite a poor start, the new manager has taken his team into fourth place in the Premier League table after signing Di Maria, Falcao, Ander Herrera, Daley Blind, Marcos Rojo and Luke Shaw in the summer.

Athletico Madrid's Godin is also among the top players Van Gal is looking to recruit

Two players United do want to keep are goalkeeper David de Gea and Michael Carrick. De Gea has matured into one of the best goalkeepers in Europe since joining United in the summer of 2011 but the Spaniard will be out of contract in 18 months time.
