Manchester United announced the departure of yet another veteran defender yesterday as Patrice Evra joined Italian giants Juventus. The French defender’s exit confirms an end of an era for the Red Devils as also legendary names like Giggs, Ferdinand and Vidic will no longer be playing for United. However, as far as the new revolution is concerned, Manchester United might have just agreed one of the signings of the season by sealing a deal to sign Borussia Dortmund central defender Mats Hummels. According to reports in the media, Manchester United have finally agreed a deal with Borussia Dortmund to sign the German international who is arguably one of the best central defenders in the world at the moment. Hummels was a pivotal member of the squad that lifted the World Cup. Not only was he solid at the back but also scored two key goals for Germany. As per the provided link, United are paying only £16m to hire his services and that can be considered as a massive bargain buy. Adding to that, the move can be confirmed sometime within this week.soccerisma/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Mats-Hummels-Dortmund-135x135.jpeg His arrival will make Man United’s central defense very strong and it is likely that Hummels will be joined by another new center half at United. Previously reported on the website, Louis van Gaal is also looking to complete a deal for compatriot Stefan de Vrij as well who was consistent for Netherlands in the World Cup.
