Vermaelen wants out of Arsenal for Man Utd

Arsenal captain Thomas Vermaelen has decided to leave Manchester United this summer. The Daily Mail says Vermaelen is ready to quit the Emirates Stadium for a move to Manchester United.

The Belgium international has told close pals that he wants to complete a controversial switch to Old Trafford after the World Cup.

United manager Louis van Gaal wants to sign the central-defender this summer in a deal that could be worth in the region of £12million.

No move from United will happen until after the World Cup, though Vermaelen is said to have agreed personal terms.
