The 62-year old coach who is currently in charge of the Dutch national team will take over at Old Trafford after the world cup.

Excerpts from the club’s website:

Louis has managed at the top level of European football for over 20 years and in that time has won domestic titles and domestic cups in three countries, as well as the UEFA Champions League, the UEFA Cup, an Intercontinental Cup, two UEFA Super Cups and domestic Super Cups in Holland and Germany. 

Announcing the appointments, Ed Woodward said: “In Louis van Gaal, we have secured the services of one of the outstanding managers in the game today. He has achieved many things in his career to date and Old Trafford provides him with a fitting stage on which to write new chapters in the Manchester United story.

Very good coach in my opinion, Manchester United fans must be excited after the bad experience they had last season. Good Luck LVG.
