Manchester United 'eye Jasper Cillessen as potential David de Gea replacement'

Manchester United have allegedly earmarked Ajax goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen as a potential replacement for David de Gea.

Reds Devils boss Louis van Gaal will table a £25m bid for the Netherlands international if he fails to prevent De Gea from joining Real Madrid this summer, reports The Mirror.

Van Gaal has a history with Cillessen, working with the player during his time coaching the Netherlands and famously substituting him moments before a penalty shootout with Costa Rica at the World Cup finals.

Cillessen would become United's second Dutch signing ahead of next season, with Memphis Depay recently joining the club from PSV Eindhoven for £25m.
