Manchester United Begin Negotiations With Bayern Munich For Star Man

Manchester United have just been haplessly beaten by Bayern Munich today but they're now in hot pursuit of their defender Jerome Boateng.

Boateng didn't have the best World Cup campaign but no one can deny that he's still a top-drawer defender. Jose Mourinho is crying out for some new additions ahead of the new season, with Man City winning the Premier League last season at a canter.

Supporters have had their say.

And now it appears that Mourinho is close to bringing in revered defender Boateng.

And this is what the supporters have have had to say on the matter:

Mourinho has stressed the need for reinforcements all summer. Via the Metro he said:

'I think two is not what I will get. I think in every pre-season it happens basically the same with probably every club, which the manager wants more. It is our nature and our way to always want more for your team. 'But club decisions are different. Normally you don't get what you want which basically happened throughout my career. If I sign one player before the window closes, that's fine.'

Where do you think Man United will finish next season?
