Louis van Gaal says he needs to sign a superstar to help achieve his ambition of winning the Premier League before he leaves the club in two years.
Speaking with Sky Sports News HQ'sVinny O'Connor, he admitted that's the time limit he's given himself to win the Premier League title. After which he'll walk away, whatever happens.
And to give himself the greatest chance of realising his ambition and maybe delivering Manchester United's fourth European title, Van Gaal says he needs to sign a player like Cristiano Ronaldo.
"I think we still need more speed in front and also more creativity and that is why I want (Angel) Di Maria to stay, but, we don't know that so we will have to see," he said.
"Bayern Munich – they have Ribery and Robben. Chelsea have Hazard and Willian. Real Madrid: Ronaldo and Bale. Barcelona: Neymar and Messi.
"(Ashley) Young and (Juan) Mata had fantastic seasons with assists and goals but to win the Champions League you need speed also. That is why I think, maybe, we still have to buy a player with speed and creativity."
