We have also seen the likes of established players make big money moves with David Luiz moving to PSG and Luis Suarez completing a big money deal at Barcelona after the bite heard round the world ruled him out of football until well into the month of November. 

As we get closer to the kick off of the English Premier League season, we have Arsenal already signing Alexis Sanchez in addition to Manchester United capturing the signatures of Southampton’s Luke Shaw and Andres Herrera of Athletic Bilbao. They also seem poised to sign Arturo Vidal if the current media reports are to be believed and that would add an exciting amount of resilience to a midfield that has needed reinforcing for quite some time. 

Louis Van Gaal is set to be unveiled soon after producing arguably the best managerial performance at the World Cup aside from Germany. Manchester United fans are eagerly anticipating the Dutch Master taking the reigns at Old Trafford and also being able to focus entirely on the domestic cup competitions and the Premier League itself. Some fail to remember that, after almost an entire season under the tutelage of David Moyes, United couldn’t even qualify for the Europa League. 

Now they are looming a much larger threat according to the bookmakers as they trade as the clear third choice to win the competition - a price that could drop a bit if they were to bring in some additional high-profile signings. 

Punters will find Manchester united available at a 6.0 price tag behind both Chelsea and Manchester City - who appear to be locked in a dead-on shoot-out for the title. As it currently stands, the books appear to be giving the slight edge to Manchester City with a 2.75 price tag just ahead of 2.87 Chelsea. Watch out for United to drop in price significantly with several more key signings expected to be announced - both the Vidal signature and a strong central defender appear to be in the offing as Van Gaal appears to be given a substantial warchest.
