Could Schweinsteiger be following Louis van Gaal out of United?

It would be unfortunate to see Daley Blind sold after his decent performances in United colours.

The 26-year-old Dutch international had an excellent spell in the 2014 FIFA World Cup as he played under Louis Van Gaal. Starting as a left back, he was signed for a fee of £13.8million after he was lauded for his ability at the international level.

At Old Trafford, Van Gaal opted Blind to play as a centre defensive midfielder or more as of a solid centre back at the heart of the defence. Even after two successful years at United, he looks to be cut off from Mourinho's revolution. With the addition of Luke Shaw back in United's defence, it would be difficult for the Dutch player to make an impact and to assure his new boss of his performances.

Spanish publication Sport claim that Daley Blind will be offered an escape route to football giants Barcelona as they seem to be interested in the versatile player. Barcelona could be on the verge of losing defenders to other clubs and Blind looks in perfect shape to replace them.

However, United will not look to let go of their key player and will only look to sell him if the right offer is made. The front page of Sport read that Luis Enrique is keen to get Blind to Camp Nou for a fee of £14million.
