Ahead of this weekend's clash with Tottenham at White Hart Lane, the 64-year-old, speaking to Swedish TV station Viasat, was asked his thoughts on PSG's free-agent-to-be making a move to Old Trafford.
The ex-Ajax boss did not give a straight answer (as usual) but instead spoke about how he managed to lower the average age of the squad he inherited from David Moyes.
"We need to improve our selection because when I took over we had six or seven players above 33-years-old. Nobody knows that anymore because now they are gone. But now we have a much younger team and still we need a much younger selection because we need creative players in attack and also fast players."Speaking about the Swede, Van Gaal likes his style, but not the greying at his temples. He didn't wish to comment on the possibility of signing the 34-year-old striker, but clearly it's not something the ex-Barcelona coach is considering right now.
"You never know? I cannot say anything about that subject. He’s already 34 and I just spoke about the age [of players] I let go. "I think it is unbelievable what he is doing. I saw the game against Manchester City, and it was a big disappointment for me because he should have scored two times at least. "Paris Saint-Germain is Zlatan and that is fantastic. When a manager like me, who favours the team [above the individual], is saying that, that is a compliment for him.There's no guarantee that Van Gall will be at United past the summer, but if he is, it looks unlikely that Zlatan will be joining him.
