Manchester United supporters in the Football Transfer Tavern were left shocked when it was announced on Thursday night that club captain Nemanja Vidic would depart at the end of the season.

The 32-year-old has decided to end his highly-successful spell at Old Trafford in the summer, as he looks for a fresh start following the arrival of David Moyes at the club.

United punters in the bar thought that the Serbian had a few years left in him and know full well that finding a replacement won’t be easy.

With fellow veteran defender Rio Ferdinand also set to leave in the next 12 months, the former Everton boss is certainly on the lookout for possible top-quality additions.

talkSPORT bring the first suggestion into the tavern today as they claim Moyes is lining up a move for Turkish international centre back Semih Kaya.

The Galatasaray defender, 22, has impressed with his current side and has also stood out with the Turkish national team with his no nonsense approach and Moyes reportedly believes he would be a good addition to the United squad.

Kaya, who is rated at around £12 million by the Istanbul giants, would be interested in making a big money switch to the Premier League.
