Louis van Gaal’s defensive wishlist – The five centre-backs Manchester United are looking to sign including Chelsea target

Bruno Martins Indi, Feyenoord

With van Gaal remaining head coach of the Netherlands national team until after the 2014 World Cup it’s always likely that players from his squad will be linked with United.

This 22-year-old is similar to Mangala in the sense that he can also operate as a left-back if required and with Patrice Evra also linked with an exit from the Theatre of Dreams this summer, that could be a huge bonus.

Martins Indi doesn’t have the same sort of Champions League and international experience as others on this list, but would be cheaper as a result.
