Thomas Vermaelen is wanted by Manchester United[GETTY]
Vermaelen is wanted by new United boss Louis Van Gaal after falling out of favour under Arsene Wenger at the Emirates.
The centre-back is currently at the World Cup in Brazil with Belgium, but could make the move after the tournament.
According to reports, Vermaelen has told friends he is prepared to defect from Arsenal to United this summer.

Should he make the move to Manchester he would link up with Robin van Persie, with the pair close from their time at the Gunners.
Vermaelen has been used sparingly by Wenger in recent seasons, despite still being club captain at Arsenal.
The 28-year-old is thought to be valued at around £12million by the north London club.
