Louis van Gaal 'ready to launch Stefan de Vrij bid'

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has lined up a move to bring Feyenoord defender Stefan de Vrij to Old Trafford, according to a report.

The 22-year-old is also the target of Lazio after impressing for the Netherlands at the World Cup.

However, De Vrij has refused to speak with the Serie A side as he has been assured that his former boss at international level is ready to launch a £10m bid to take him to the Red Devils, reports The Mirror.

United have already signed Ander Herrera and Luke Shaw this summer.
