NEWS NEWS BLOG SPORT brings you all the latest news from Old Trafford.

 

Manchester United have made Romelu Lukaku a £50m January transfer target, according to reports.

The Belgian has been in sensational form for Everton this season, scoring eight goals in his last seven appearances for the Toffees.

And according to the Italian publication ItaSportPress, the Red Devils will attempt to bring the 22-year-old to Old Trafford in a desperate attempt to solve their goalscoring problems.

Everton will not let Lukaku leave cheaply however, with his current contract at Goodison Park set to expire in 2019.

 

Louis van Gaal is considering recalling youngster James Wilson from his loan spell at Brighton.

The 20-year-old has scored two goals in his last three appearances since joining the Championship side but could be heading back to Old Trafford if the Dutchman decides to cut short his loan.

Van Gaal will be able to recall the striker in time for United's Boxing Day clash at Stoke, once he has completed the required minimum 28 days under loan rules.

The Dutch boss is beginning to lose the support of the United dressing room, according to reports.

Van Gaal has been criticised for his defensive style of play in recent months and several of the senior players are now questioning his tactics.

The Sun report two players argued Van Gaal's decisions in the dressing room after they drew 1-1 with Leicester several weeks ago.

Another player reportedly stood up to the 64-year-old following their goalless draw with West Ham earlier this month.
