Manchester United a plotting a summer move for Bayern Munich's Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal.

Mourinho is concerned about his lack of options in the centre of the
pitch and has lined up Vidal to bolster his resources, according to
Manchester Evening News.
Vidal's contract with the Bavarian club runs until 2019 but the Old Trafford club are confident they can prise him away, particularly given that the German champions have signed Leon Goretska.
There is potential for a revamp of the midfield next season for Mourinho with a number of players facing uncertain futures.
Michael Carrick has suffered with a heart condition, Marouane Fellaini has not signed a new deal and Ander Herrera has also been linked with a move away.
With Mourinho spending £89million on Paul Pogba and £40m on Nemanja Matic, Vidal would be another high profile addition.
At 30-years-old Vidal is unlikely to command an astronomical fee and no doubt compatriot Alexis Sanchez would welcome him with open arms.
Bayern manager Jupp Heynckes said Vidal's future will be decided in the summer.
Mourinho is looking for players with proven experience and Vidal would certainly fit the bill having starred for Juventus, Bayern and his national team.
