Manchester United boss Louis Van Gaal is reportedly open to the departure of defender Rafael da Silva in the summer.



The Brazilian full-back has struggled to earn sufficient game-time at United since Van Gaal's arrival over the summer.

According to The Telegraph, Van Gaal will meet up with the club's hierarchy regarding the possible sale of the 24-year-old at the end of the season.

Rafael has fallen down below the likes of Antonio Valencia, Chris Smalling and Paddy McNair for the right-back role.
