Mario Gotze could leave Bayern Munich in the summer
Manchester United could land Mario Gotze, according to reports.
The midfielder will have just one year left to run on his Bayern Munich contract next summer.
And German publication TZ claim Bayern are preparing a number of deals for their top stars, but Gotze won't be included in that round of talks.
Liverpool, it is thought could make a move as Jurgen Klopp seeks to strengthen his squad.
Louis van Gaal has confirmed Antonio Valencia could play some part for United in their Europa League tie against Liverpool.
Valencia has been out of action since October with a foot injury.
But the 30-year-old is now set for a comeback, according to Van Gaal.

"Valencia is fit enough to be on the bench, but not to play 90 minutes," Van Gaal said.
Former AC Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso has surprisingly thrown his hat into the ring to become the next United manager.
Van Gaal has been under intense pressure this term, and is widely expected to be replaced by Jose Mourinho.
