Manchester United have been looking to sign German a world class center back since last summer when Louis van Gaal was appointed.
It seems the wait is finally over for the manager and the supporters as Mats Hummels looks set to join Red Devils.
With speculations regarding Hummels’ future going on in the media, the Borussia Dortmund captain came up and claimed that he might be leaving Germany. as he claimed:
“I think moving abroad will be good for my professional and personal well-being.”
Now, according to reports, a source close to Germany camp has confirmed that €47m star is on the verge of agreeing Man United move.
Source stated:
“He (Hummels) is preparing his exit and he gave some of the players signs that his transfer is close.”
Hummels is Van Gaal’s priority signing for the central defense position and his arrival will be incredible news for the club.
United need world class players to challenge the best teams and for top prizes and Mats is exactly the kind of player who can help them in achieving that objective.
United did sign Argentine Marcos Rojo from Sporting last summer and it seems that the World Cup finalists will be forming a central defense partnership for Man United next season.

Memphis depay n Roberto firmino are not defencive playres obviously,thats why i mentiond their name;)
Sign him but what about Otamendi’s deal…
Pls leave Otamendi outta this, as long as we get Hummel, we need to buy younger defenders like Laporte or Varane.. Why must we buy old players that might fade off after 3-4years when we can buy Younger ones that are quite experienced.. So pls let Otamendi be, its either Hummel or Otamendi & Laporte or Varane, then Memphis Depay, Firmino whom both I believe are already confirmed & will be at the stand for our last EPL match, then Dymbala or Kane.. Let Evans, Falcao & VPersie go & loan out Wilson, Lingard, Blackett, Perreira & McNair… Thank you!
