Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is expected to learn the size of his summer transfer budget today.

The Telegraph says vice-chairman Ed Woodward will reveal the club's spending plans along with the quarterly account figures that are due today.

The financial results for the first three months of the year will be shown to shareholders.

And should they be good, then Louis van Gaal can expect a sizeable kitty to play with in the coming months.

The fact that United are almost certain of a Champions League place for next season will also do wonders for the Dutchman's bank balance.
