Speaking after the Club America win last Friday, the Dutchman discussed his options up front and explained he is happy to have Wayne Rooney, James Wilson and Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez in his squad. However, he also said “maybe there comes a surprise, you never know".
During his pre-match press conference for Tuesday’s ICC match against San Jose Earthquakes, van Gaal was quizzed on his comments about a surprise signing and asked if the club has made any further progress with it in the transfer market.
“He is in the process,” said the boss. “It's not the striker the media has written about. You have to wait and see. The transfer period is open until the 1 September so we have to wait.”
The manager was also asked about the possibility of the club signing Sergio Ramos from Real Madrid. "I cannot talk about these rumours. I have said in a lot of press conferences that it's a process. Maybe Mr Ramos is in the process - you never know."
Earlier in the press conference, van Gaal confirmed David De Gea and Antonio Valencia will both miss United's match against San Jose Earthquakes through injury.
