Manchester United are planning a record bid for PSG striker Edinson Cavani. New United manager Louis Van Gaal is aiming to overhaul his squad this summer and has left vice-chairman Ed Woodward in control of securing his top targets, while he fulfils his duties with the Netherlands at the World Cup, says the Daily Star.
And according to reports, United will launch a record-breaking £56m bid as they attempt to convince PSG to part with Cavani.
Cavani previously insisted his desire to hold talks with the French champions before making a decision on his future, but news of the impending bid from United could convince him to re-think his stance.
PSG broke the transfer record in France last July to bring Cavani to the Parc des Princes from Napoli in a £54m deal.
