  • Man Utd serious about signing Rafael Leao


  • De Jong, who had previously attracted interest from Manchester United, failed to earn a regular role at the Rossoneri this season.

    The Netherlands international has now linked up with Los Angeles Galaxy on a free transfer after he mutually cut ties with Milan during the recently concluded transfer window.

    The 31-year-old will join up with former Premier League stars Steven Gerrard and Ashley Cole at his new club.

    De Jong made over 130 appearances for Manchester City during a three-year spell between 2009 and 2012.
