Former Man Utd assistant admits that new signings are on the way

Man Utd, who have been linked with the likes of Arturo Vidal, are expected to make big transfer moves in June. Manchester United's former assistant manager Mike Phelan has confirmed that new players will be brought in during the summer.

New coach Louis Van Gaal is expected to be given a huge transfer budget once he joins United after the World Cup.

United have been linked with a host of new players and are pursuing the likes of Juventus' Arturo Vidal this month.

Phelan said: “There’s a lot of talk about new players coming into the club and I’m sure when the new manager comes in he’ll have his favourites.

“Man United have said they have money to spend so I’m sure as a manager he’ll spend it. I think this time because of the disappointing season they had last year there is room for changes.”
