Manchester United are ready to turn their attentions to Everton midfielder James McCarthy after Louis van Gaal has opted against signing Toni Kroos.
The former Wigan midfielder has impressed in his debut season at Goodison Park since his £13.5million move last summer and played a big contribution in Everton’s fifth place finish.
According to Sky Sources, Van Gaal has been impressed with the 23-year-old and has emerged as a surprise candidate to slot into the midfield next season.
Manchester United have been linked with an array of foreign talent including Bayern Munich’s Kroos but reports claim that the new United boss has given up on his chase for the German international and will move for the Republic of Ireland international.
Everton remain keen on extending McCarthy’s contract but they may need to move quickly with United lurking.
