Crisis-hit Man Utd not shelving pursuit of Juventus midfielder Vidal

With Manchester United again plunged into crisis, the Arturo Vidal rumour-mill is cranking up again in Turin.

Tuttosport says United boss Louis van Gaal hasn't given up on signing the Juventus midfield star and intends to make a fresh bid for the Chilean in January.

Van Gaal, armed with United's record adidas deal, will make a new attempt in 2015 to convince Juve to part with the midfielder.

Vidal's camp have already agreed personal terms with United, a deal which was struck over the summer. But Juve refused to sell.

The Bianconeri, in the final weeks of the summer transfer window, insisted they could not part with Vidal with so little time to find a readymade replacement.
