Manchester United Transfer News Update

Manchester United and Alex Ferguson have a battle on their hands to keep Cristiano Ronaldo at Old Trafford. The winger’s agent is due to meet Ferguson today for showdown talks and with Ronaldo’s recent comments claiming that Manchester United did not defend him, Fergie will have to do his best to get Ronaldo back.

Ruud’s been continuously linked with Bayern Munich, and with the media now ‘catching up’ to the idea that Owen Hargreaves might be an option (instead of Michael Carrick, whose arrival looks less certain now) a ‘swap’ deal is being mooted. Possible, but unlikely. Nistelrooy will probably not be sold as Manchester United’s priority this season is the midfield and selling Ruud means buying another striker – Torres is way too expensive now for United to buy him, and while pairing two young strikers up front (Torres and Rooney) would be ideal, Saha and Rooney (or Nistelrooy and Rooney) form a great partnership already.

Still, stranger things have happened. A lot of this will hinge on what happens with Ronaldo.

On the midfielder front, it appears Manchester United might be close to signing Marcos Senna for a 3.5 mil deal. Once again, no word from either teams so I doubt this is true – United need a big midfielder and while Senna might be good, he’s not Gattuso or Mascherano good. And the fans need – deserve – someone that good coming in.

More tomorrow as the Ronaldo situation becomes clearer. The new kit design floating around on the net is still a fake…wait for it guys, only 4 more days till they launch it.

    United are stuck in a decision between 3 argentinian players!Sir Alex has admitted interest but would want to hurry up if would want some of them to play in the champions league next year! These players(tevez,riquelme and mascherano) are all high quality players sais Sir Alex and team captain Gary Neville but it is a hard decision to pick one!We would welcome anyone of them at Old Trafford!The argentines range in price between 12m-24m. tevez-12m macherano-15.3m and riquelme-23.2m!

    manu should sign ronaldinho and david villa and silva and cannavaro becoz there is lack of backs in man u but still there is vidic and ferdinand. but there foe man u should show some new and the great players at old trafford

    instead of purchasing strikers & defenders manu should look out for a good right winger like lenon of totenham, walcot, steven ireland,iniesta,frank ribery in order to fill out ronaldo’s gap..

  15. matt clark

    Hey, i think Manchester United should buy a creative midfielder like David silva, a solid defender to replace vidic or rio when they are injured. and an all out striker that can score goals, not doubting Rooney but he plays more like a midfielder, maybe someone like villa.

    January 30th, 2010 @ 19:41
  16. Emmanuel

    Please give a chance to these both players who longs to play for united again Beckam as midfielder now, and Ruud, and if u really need a good midfielder, try Pirlo or put the price to get Ronaldo back.

    May 24th, 2010 @ 05:30
  40. Bony

    I think
    For Striker – Benzema or Ibrahimovic
    Mid – Snijder And Gerrad
    GK – Casillas or Buffon
    Side back – S. Ramos and D.Alves

    May 26th, 2010 @ 18:31
    • gGw

      bony, you need at least 105m for all your players. benzema 30m / ibra 40m + sneijder 25m + gerrard 25m + buffon 20m + alves 15m (casillas and ramos are not for sale)

      May 27th, 2010 @ 12:08
  41. Dinesh

    I think Sir Alex should look for a left winger. If they can’t get Gareth Bale , then Rafel Van Der Vart would do especially because he is a fan of Manutd. If Owen Hargreaves can make a real come back in midfield and Javier Hernadez can strike a good partnership with Rooney then Manutd will claim back their crown next year.

    May 27th, 2010 @ 15:07
  42. Nicardo Williams

    I think sir alex should sell anderson and sign players like di maria, fernado torres, one more central midfieler our defends line is ok and i think we should get ronaldo back if it is not too expensive
    and sell valencia and hargreves

    May 31st, 2010 @ 16:38
  43. KAMAL GHOSH

    Plzzzzzzzzzzz No Ronaldo any More Now sir Alex ave To Call Messi

  54. nelson mkwezi

    Fergie should go deep in the transfer market to cope with next season’s pressure by bringing in a striker(Fabiano,Dzeko,Suarez) and a midfielder(Mesut Oezil,Van Der Vaart)and Hugo Lloris in goalkeeping task.

    July 12th, 2010 @ 16:01
  55. mahesh
