1 Galatasaray defender Semih Kaya

Galatasaray defender Semih Kaya has emerged as a potential replacement for Nemanja Vidic at Manchester United.

The captain will be leaving United in the summer and David Moyes is set for a summer overhaul.

Numerous positions need to be filled and a conservative estimate would suggest four players will come in, with a centre-back – along with a centre midfielder – now a priority.

Rio Ferdinand’s future is also unclear and Moyes will scour Europe for a defender between now and the summer. Ideally, work on most of the new signings will be completed before the World Cup.

Kaya, 22, has impressed at Galatasaray and the Turkey defender has earned plaudits at international level.

While his club want to keep him, the lure of a Premier League move may prompt £12m-rated Kaya into pushing for a switch.
