United may not be signing a striker this transfer window, after
manager Van Gaal admits he doesn’t know if he’ll sign a striker.
It was generally believed that Van Gaal was preparing a
surprise striker signing and he Dutch man was quoted as saying the signing would
be a surprise one and not the one popularly written about in the media.
But after United’s 3 – 1 victory over the San Jose
Earthquakes on the tour of USA, Van Gaal has denied saying that. In his words ‘‘I
don’t know I want to buy a striker. I have read in the media the striker is the
surprise. No that’s not what I said.’’
