Manchester United interested in Ajax star Daley Blind

Manchester United are reportedly pondering over a summer bid for the services of Ajax midfielder Daley Blind, according to The Mirror.

The talented midfielder put up an impressive performance during the Dutch's 5-1 thrashing of Spain on Friday, where he set up two goals with fine passes.

The Mirror reports that Netherlands manager Louis van Gaal, who is set to takeover the reigns at Manchester United after the World Cup, is readying an offer in the region of £12m for the 24-year-old.

Blind initially started his career as a left-back, but has transformed himself into a holding midfielder under manager Frank de Boer.
