Manchester United have made an enquiry for Feyenoord right back Daryl Janmaat.

The Holland defender has been attracting interest from Napoli, Spurs, Arsenal and Leicester.

The 24-year-old has one year left on his contract but has already told the club he is leaving this summer, with team-mates Stefan de Vrij and Bruno Martins Indi also expected to depart.

All have been followed by United scouts prior to Louis van Gaal’s arrival as manager and have been regulars in his World Cup starting line-up.

United have an interest in Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen but are reluctant to match the valuation of £12m.

They remain keen on Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal, but Juve’s £45m asking price and Real Madrid’s interest mean they are evaluating alternatives, such as Madrid’s Sami Khedira and Nigel de Jong of AC Milan.

Well the guy got his own thread. United must be serious about him.:D

I would welcome the transfer if a price is reasonable (7-9M). Smalling and Jones deputized at right back position long enough, we need a proper cover, a proper competition there either. With Evra-Shaw on the left and Janmaat-Rafael on the right our full back positions will be sorted out finally.
 
Admit it, it's just a matter of time until everyone in the Dutch squad has a thread in the transfer forum.

But no need to rush it, it will happen in it's own time.
 
Is our academy/youth really that awful that we actually need to go out to buy perennial squad players for cover?

You see any real RB option? I mean the one in reserve is actually am Uruguay guy we also bought.
 
we dont need player on level of Blind and Janmaat not that they are not good players but not our quality and I dont use this phrase so often but they just look average, and whats more we ve got Rafa hopefully injury free for the next seasons coming with Valencia, Varela, Janko = 4 potential right backs and all of them looks better/better potential than janmaat.. the same goes with de vries he just looks like michael keane but more experienced not adding that much of quality but we certainly will go for one centre back and still doubt we have that 150m package... so players of this cathegory(price/quality) are always considered

obviously that's the way to go but sometimes things don't always work out that way as the likes of Macheda, Kieron Richardson, Cleverley, Larnell Cole and Tunnicliffe have shown etc

I don't remember us having that many academy squad-players in the team, certainly not one in every position.

If we need to buy a player for cover I don't see that as an indictment of our academy.

Then why not just use him? At least with him there's a slight chance he might challenge for a first team spot somewhere down the line.

Janmaat's 24 already (25 in a months time) so I can't see the point in spending more money on a player who's never going to be good enough to be a first choice option.

I was actually including the likes of Varela and Janko when I said academy/youth - where we've kind of cheated as we actually went out and bought them as young players.

I would love to see Janko cover at RB next season, he'd learn a lot on the way and he's a top young player.

Considering Rafael has had some injury problems I can see having someone like Janmaat around, a bit more experienced and well rounded than Janko for games where he might be a bit out of his depth.

Don't expect us to buy Janmaat, mind.

Do you think Janko is ready to trust as RB cover? He played I think once for the u21s at RB. I think he needs to at least get some matches at RB under his belt for the u21s first. Surely Varela is the more ready of the two.

I would love to see it, not sure it would be the best defensive choice!

I thought he played more than once but I could be wrong. IIRC he was mostly playing right wing when he played for the U21s.

I think @Skills has a point that we do have some highly rated young players that we've brought in, and we should seriously consider giving them the games instead of bringing in another highly rated young player.

Janko is especially highly rated, so he seems like one worth pointing out.

I think Janko is as ready as Rafael was when he came into the squad. With the right coaching I think he could transition just fine, and he can continue to play U21 games when he's not going to play for us that weekend.

With van Gaal it's probably more likely our academy players will see game time, as well.

Transfermarkt has him at RB only the once with Varela at RB most matches and Love and Fabio in for a couple matches while Varela was away.

Oh I agree about giving the young lads the chance and as you say with van Gaal it's likely they will.

Either Varela or Janko I'll be happy to see getting time, just a bit sceptical of Janko being thrown in with his limited time at RB. He has said RB is the position he wants to play though so I'm sure he is working hard at the defensive side of it. Buying a back-up RB is something I'm completely against.

Well, here is the line-up from the U21 final, where Janko played on the right wing.

Here he is playing RW in the semi-final.

I'm guessing name a dutch player and we get linked atm. Watching the dutch play, I thought he was clearly there weakest player defensively and didn't do a thing going forward.
 
Janmaat looked very clumsy on the ball for Holland and doesn't really strike me as a quality player or someone with real potential, I think this is just a made up rumor.

Yeah at the moment it looks made up.

Bruno Martins Indi is going to Porto for 6.8 million pounds, so the only real good thing about Janmaat is that he would be very cheap. Was a bit anonymous in the first two matches of the World Cup, but gave a nice assist vs. Chile. Looked alright defensively, he certainly isn't much worse of a player than someone like Glenn Johnson.

Only reason for us to buy him is because he's a very cheap, motivated option behind Rafael with international experience. As has been mentioned reports of Janmaat being replaced by Verhaegh against Mexico tomorrow, you'll always have to wait if that's true. Isn't a good sign, although he might be injured.

No reports from Holland that United are looking to sign him. So at the moment it's pure speculation, as soon as something comes in at Feyenoord about Janmaat it will be reported in the press for sure, and like I said, no sign of that yet.
 
We do really only have one natural right back in the team. If we buy him I hope it is only for cover.

Didn't Janko and Varela swap positions at half time in that game?

Either way, I don't think much of Varela as yet. He's obviously got something about him but I think his positioning isn't great, he's not strong enough and his decision making is woeful. I think Janko could go on to have a much better career although it remains to be seen at which position. Personally I'd rather play Keane at RB if Rafael's injured than either of them but would be excited to see Janko get a chance as I think he's got the most potential of the three.

I see people saying this but he'd have the same problems as Jones and Smalling at RB. We may as well play Jones at RB than Keane.

Do you even have a shed?

Well, no, he used to regularly play for the U18s there so it's not exactly outlandish. Sure I think he's a better centre half currently but there's no reason he couldn't be a good RB. We know Smalling and Jones are a bit average there, not so with Keane at the moment. Either way it will definitely help his development.

We might end up not trusting Varela or Janko since Rafael is more injury prone than our centre back. There will be high possibility that Rafael wouldn't be our starting eleven right back next season. Unless if he can repeat the 2012/2013 season. Though I prefer Coleman. But he's already signed a new contract. Janmaat.. Hmm.. still not too sure.

If Rafael isn't our starting RB who could it possibly be? And don't say Valencia because everytime he played their/switched later in a game we conceded a goal. He'll be first choice is he remains fit, Van Gaal will coach out his childish ways which crept back into his game last season.

That's why we need to sort this out. New right back is probably the answer.

But with so many other positions in need of strengthening RB would be lowest on the list, Van Gaal might have something up his sleeve but I hope Rafa can stay fit and nail down the position again.

So you like to see Jones as our starting eleven right back then?
Do you really expect to see Varela and Janko to jump in to be our starting eleven right back?
Rafael is more injury prone than our centre back. He has worse injury problem.
I only can see new right back is the answer. No new right back then get ready to see a high possibility of Jones, Valencia, Varela and Janko to be our starting eleven right back.

I think we still have Vermijl who played a full season in the Dutch top league

Oh yeah I almost forgot him. I guess I might need to make some change from my old post

Jones could easily jump back ahead of Rafael next season. A lot depends on who keeps fit and what LVG sees as Jones's best position for the team. We just don't know.

Yeah I don't even know what is Jones best position as well.

I don't want any CB's at RB.
Probably not.
Two of Rafael's biggest injury layouts were from awkward challenges (Wigan Community Shield) and his awkward landing at Craven Cottage. honestly I'm not worried about him with less games and a pre season uninterrupted by any niggles will be a big plus.

Also say if we were to sign a RB who could we possibly sign? They'd need to be on the cheap since we probably need to sign another midfielder, central defender and winger.

Man, everything you are asking already been explained from my only single first post on this thread. It's like I'm repeating my words.
I prefer Coleman. But he's not available. So how do I know who else we can sign. It's not like I know who we can sign in midfield and central defender as well. I don't know as well buddy.

What about Vermijl someone above mentioned him but I've heard mixed reviews. Would he be a good back up?
