Manchester United deny Louis van Gaal offered to quit

Loud boos rang around Old Trafford following the final whistle of Saturday’s game as Van Gaal endured what he later described as the worst reaction he has heard from United supporters.

Manchester United have denied manager Louis van Gaal offered to resign following Saturday’s 1-0 home loss to Southampton.

Reports emerged late on Monday suggesting the Dutchman spoke to United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward about his future immediately after the Barclays Premier League contest at the weekend.
