Manchester United are keeping close tabs on Wesley Sneijder according to football manager Muhsin Ertuğral.

“I know Manchester United are keeping close tabs on Wesley Sneijder,” Ertuğral told Radyospor.

“I know Luis Van Gaal is interested. 

“This is what is being said behind the scenes but in my opinion if Galatasaray let him go they will not be able to replace him with a player of the same quality.”

Sneijder has been closely linked with a move to Manchester United and Juventus.

Ertuğral has close ties with Galatasaray and has been working on setting up a satellite club in South Africa for the Lions.

“I met with the Galatasaray president and we had a discussion around the future of the club with regards to the academy that they are planning to set-up in Germany which is similar to what Ajax Amsterdam have,” he tells KickOff.com.

“I had this discussion with the president because of my experience working in a similar project. There is absolutely nothing like that I will be joining the Galatasaray first team on any capacity right now and there are no negotiations taking place whatsoever.”
