Man Utd willing to commit £100 MILLION to prise Di Maria from Real Madrid

Manchester United are willing to break the bank to prise Angel di Maria away from Real Madrid. The Daily Mail says United are prepared to commit as much as £100million to their pursuit of Di Maria.

United manager Van Gaal is desperate for world- class additions and has told chief executive Ed Woodward to do all he can to bring winger Di Maria to the club from Real Madrid.

It is understood United have told the Argentine that, with performance-based incentives, they will pay him around £200,000 a week. Over a five-year deal that would take United's investment to £100m when a transfer fee of around £50m is included.
