Manchester United are planning a double raid on PSG. The People says United are ready to launch a £57million double bid for Paris Saint-Germain duo Edinson Cavani and Thiago Silva.

The Old Trafford giants have been on striker Cavani's trail for over a year - he was a target during the short-lived David Moyes era - and they are after the Uruguay international once more, but boss Louis van Gaal is just as keen to land team-mate and centre-back Silva.

Van Gaal sees 30-year-old Brazil international Silva as the perfect defender to recruit if he can't persuade Borussia Dortmund's German international Mats Hummel to join his Old Trafford revolution.
