Moyes keen for Man Utd to trump Chelsea for Van Ginkel

Manchester United boss David Moyes is keen on Vitesse Arnhem youngster Marco van Ginkel.

The Daily Star Sunday says Moyes would love to go double Dutch and partner midfielder Marco van Ginkel with his star striker Robin van Persie at Old Trafford next season.

But Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is in the driving seat with Van Ginkel's club Vitesse Arnhem having a link-up with the Stamford Bridge club.

That will not stop Moyes making his move as he gets out the United chequebook to splash up to £15million on the Dutch wonderkid.

United chief scout Jim Lawlor flew out to Israel to watch Van Ginkel play for Holland in the Under-21s European Championship.
