Instead, Van Gaal has moved for 16-year-old Ajax defender Timothy Fosu Mensah. According to reports, highly-rated youngster Mensah was at United's Carrington training ground yesterday to undergo a medical. The teenage Dutchman is reportedly set to cost the Red Devils an initial £300,000. Manchester City and Inter Milan were also in the running for Mensah but he has opted for United. Mensah can play at centre-back, left-back and as a defensive midfielder meaning he is well suited to Van Gaal's 3-5-2 plans at Old Trafford.
