Man Utd to cast managerial net wider than van Gaal

Manchester United will reportedly look further than Louis van Gaal as they continue their search for a new manager.

Sky Sports understands that the Old Trafford club will cast the net wide as they seek a replacement for David Moyes who was sacked last Tuesday.

It has already been reported that United are set to agree a three-year, £25million-deal with current Holland boss van Gaal but fresh reports suggest that there are more targets in the Red Devils' sights.

Some names linked with the job include Borussia Dortmund's Juergen Klopp, Atletico Madrid's Diego Simeone and Real Madrid's Carlo Ancelotti while interim boss Ryan Giggs is also believed to be an option.

Although none of the three managers at other clubs have been confirmed as targets, Sky sources are of the belief that the reigning English champions 'are keeping their options open with other candidates still in the frame'.
