Kroos has been watched twice by Moyes this season

United manager David Moyes has watched Kroos twice this year, most recently at Arsenal, where the Germany midfielder produced a virtuoso performance and hit the winning goal in Bayern's last 16 Champions League win.

Moyes was also pictured speaking with Kroos' agent during Bayern's win at Borussia Mönchengladbach in January, and now the 24-year-old's brother has admitted he could move to Manchester.

"We've already talked about (Toni's potential move to Manchester United)," Werder Bremen star Felix Kroos told Sky Germany.

"Manchester has been my dream team since I was a child. But I don’t give him any advice.

Moyes is believed to have earmarked Kroos and İlkay Gündoğan, the Borussia Dortmund No.8, as his primary midfield targets this summer.
