Paper Round: Louis van Gaal could quit Manchester United in the summer

Manchester United might lose their manager in the summer, but they're focused on landing Romelu Lukaku. That and more from the Wednesday papers.

LVG may quit Manchester United

Louis van Gaal's Manchester United contract doesn't expire until 2017, but he may not make it that far, and it may not be the Red Devils' choice. The Mirror understand that the Dutchman is considering quitting the club this summer. Those close to Van Gaal are concerned about the pressure he has been under at Old Trafford and even the manager isn't thrilled with the situation so he may step down a year before his contract ends. If Van Gaal does resign, Jose Mourinho would be in line to replace him. Ryan Giggs will not get serious consideration.
Paper Round's view - Being the Manchester United manager comes with plenty of pressure, and Van Gaal's struggles have only made it worse for the Dutchman. It wouldn't be entirely out of character if Van Gaal quit considering he has done it at other clubs before and the Red Devils probably wouldn't put up a huge fight. Man United might even be willing to pay him a decent severance to get him out and clear the way for Mourinho or someone else to come in without much fuss.
