Man United: Nine signings Louis van Gaal must make to solve team’s problems including Real Madrid star and Liverpool forward

Karim Benzema
Despite his agent indicating recently that Benzema was looking to see out his career at Real Madrid [Marca via the Daily Mail], the striker’s future may soon be out of his control.

Rafael Benitez is believed to favour Cristiano Ronaldo as a centre-forward, while the French international could be used as a makeweight in the deal that takes David De Gea to the Bernabeu.

Madrid may not want the Frenchman, but United would be getting their hands on a world-class finisher.
