German World Cup star Mats Hummels could be set for a move to Manchester Utd with the help of Liverpool, claims the Daily Mail .
Their attempt to sign Borussia Dortmund centre-half Hummels was back on late Thursday evening with the two clubs near to agreement on a £20million switch.
Louis van Gaal’s chances have been massively boosted as the Bundesliga side opened talks with Liverpool about borrowing their young Portuguese defender Tiago Ilori.
The 21-year-old would be loaned to Dortmund for the season as Hummels’ replacement - a move that the Reds' manager Brendan Rodgers would allow.
Ilori was signed from Sporting Lisbon a year ago and loaned out to Spanish side Granada for experience in January. He made only nine starts for them, and is still just short of being a first-team starter.
The Reds may also be in for Lazio midfielder Ogenyi Onazi, according to Gazzetta dello Sport .
The 21-year-old Nigerian international would command a fee in the region of £8million.
Bitter rivals Everton are also keen but the Reds' Champions League participation could see them win the race.
