Former Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is returning to football.

The Sun says he is ready to make a comeback – and will return on July 1.

The ex-Manchester United boss has taken a sabbatical from football and will resist offers until the summer.

LVG, 65, cannot talk publicly about his two years at United until the summer and he is determined to keep a low profile until then.

But come July he is ready to take on a new challenge instead of hanging up his tracksuit.

And the Dutchman has told pals he wants to continue coaching instead of heading upstairs for a technical director role.
