Sydney i highly doubt Real Madrid will buy Neymar, Aguero, Essien.Aguero is the most likely i think he will make the move Doubt Neymar will the rumours surfaced from a Italian agent!And Ozil is loved by the Madrid fans and was one of there best player's last year.A front 3 pairing of Ozil Aguero Ronaldo is what i think they will line up with.

Samir Nasri deal is creeping closer with talks continueing over the next couple of days & he is prepared to hand in a transfer request to push the deal through.

United are as we all know by know holding talks regarding Alexis Sanchez in Barcelona, I have been told similar to another poster on here earlier that United & Barca looking for a deal that would see him being at United for 3 years with a view to joining Barca after that, If this comes off then expect Nani to move on.

Many Thanks

Hi ED, is still interest in Bastien Schweinsteiger? Thanks. {Ed012's Note -He signed a new long term contract at Bayern this season, stating his intentions to stay for the rest of his career. Slightly bemused by the Milan clubs interest but if they're interested and put a bid in I'd suspect we'd follow suit}

I too am hearing that the Sanchez story is a ploy by his agent to get the higher wages from city

I have just heard this from a journalist friend. David Gill and United representatives are in Barcelona today with Sanchez representatives, Udinese representatives, and senior Barca representatives. The deal being worked on is as follows.
Sanchez will sign a 5 year contract with United for a fee of around 30m. After the 3rd year, Barca will sign the player for a pre-determined fee.
Why is this deal being developed?
Barca cannot guarantee Sanchez first team football at this time, but see Sanchez as a long-term successor to David Villa.
United are keen on Sanchez, and they are guaranteed to get their investment back (other than salary) , and he is kept out of City's clutches.
Sanchez "dream" is to play for both United and Barca during his career.
Udinese are negotiating possible loans moves for United and Barca youngsters to boost their CL campaign.

If your client really wanted to move to Manchester United, the meeting would take place in the city of Manchester. The fact that reps for Utd are in BARCELONA to share time with the home city's dealmakers suggests that Alexis Sanchez only has eyes for the European champions. It's possible that Udinese will let the bids come from Man City and Man Utd to provoke the highest bid from Barcelona.

As for the goalkeeping situation, David De Gea will move to United once the U21 tournament has concluded.

Ashley Young's signing for United will take place in the next 7 days.

Wesley Sneijder's comments are directed at the Premier League, with United and Chelsea ahead of Man City in the running to sign him.

Luka Modric will most likely choose Stamford Bridge quite late on in the transfer window. But Spurs may accept an offer from United if Rio Ferdinand fills his pockets with wads of cash and goes to White Hart Lane to solidify their defence.

The rumours of young Spaniards like Martinez and Mata being chased by United are likely to come to nothing. HOWEVER, signing David De Gea may pave the way for other Spanish-speaking signings as the summer progresses.

Despite Dimitar Berbatov stating that he wished to remain at Old Trafford to fight for his place in the team next season, he will move to Germany this summer when United realise they have too many players in the forward positions.

Additional information from my associate agents.

United have held further talks with Udinese this afternoon, however Udinese looking for an auction of their prized asset. They are not desperate to sell. My source understands that United have offered £25m and Macheda. This has been rejected.

Nasri to United is looking unlikely, not down to player but Wenger and the Arsenal Board. Inter are showing interest, could mean Sneijder is off-loaded, only if they get Nasri and quality midfielders.

Elliott Kibbe (spelling) had a successful trial at Barca but wants to remain in England, and preference is United.

Snodgrass looks to be on his way to Wolves.

Gardner to Sunderland.

Shearer has had talks with Cardiff and looks destined to join.

Gibson currently discussing personal terms with Sunderland.

Apparently sanchez' agent has leaked that united are in talks with him in order to push his wages up! City are leading the chase and he has agreed personal terms with them, but is waiting to see if a better offer comes his way that Udinese will accept, ie barca or united.

A few bits of info:

Reports in Italy suggest that United are now in the driving seat for Alexis Sanchez. The key point is for United to meet the 30-35m valuation - as the player wants to sign for United and not city. Interesting stuff.......

A source in Greece has said that United will move for greek starlet Sotiris Ninis, either this summer or next - with a deal in principle already in place. I have heard this link for a while now, and my source is reputable, but Eds what do you think?

DiamondDiggityDave {Ed001's Note - I don't know, he seemed to think he was set to join in a previous window, but it fell through. Seldom do deals get revived when that happens.}

word as just come through that united are making it number one priority this summer to get 2 new centre midfielders to compete with the best teams in europe and to replace scholes and giggs, if they cant get either of modric or sneijder in the next week then they will go for spain under 21 stars juan mata and javi martinez, seen as the young up and coming xavi and iniesta, read my lips this will happen !!

United to start talks with Udinese for Sanchez. Last chance deal. Sanchex chatted to Fergie and wants to come, but Udinese want the full money. United gone to see what they can get finalised. Should this fail, he won't be joining United.

Nasri will NOT be joining. He's is using us and we are using him as a bargaining tool. Whilst the club want all transfers complete by July 1st, the marquee signing will take time, so perhaps a longer summer is possible.

Pato will NOT be joining this season. There is interest and a potential deal in place, but a work permit will not get agreed. He may go to another club, like we have done with Iturbe and agree a deal there.

My thoughts:

De Gea
Young
Jones
Sanchez
Modric or Sneijder.

I don't think Jones was part of our summer plans, but clubs went in for him so we acted. I wouldn't be surprised if the same happened with Rodwell if he had a good tournament at U21's.

Pato rumours are nonsense, heard Anderson will be given one more season to prove he is good enough and one more midfielder will be brought in. Can't see us going for anymore up top or at the back unless they are signings for the future.
Berba won't leave this season, neither will Carrick, Vidic or Rio.
I've heard the De Gea deal is a lot further away from being concluded than some people would have you believe.
I cant see us picking up Modric either as Spurs will be very reluctant to see us take yet another of their most prized assets.

Firstly the bad news, alexis sanchez will be signing for Man City. I do not know the exact fee and wages because deal not complete and is subject for details to change apart from his destination.

Secondly, the good news. As i said before it happened Jones to sign for 16.5 deal sorted before jetting off for U21's. Samir Nasri to sign in next 36 hours. Just tying up loose ends on personal terms but destination complete. De Gea will arrive 1st July after problems with agent as stated all over this site. Young to sign post honeymoon. Transfers in complete.

So it seems Bastian Schweinsteiger may be a key target for Manchester United this window (midfield playmaker). While he has recently signed a contract extension at Bayern, SAF has long been interested in him (when he was a winger) and now that United have significant funds available this year, an approach and bid will be made. It is believed Schweinsteiger would like a move away from his home country to challenge himself elsewhere.
Can anyone else confirm this?

Thankfully it appears we are looking for the Scholes replacement. An enquiry about Ozil why not? He has had a very good season at Madrid but we should be going for top players to replace a Scholesy. This summer so far has been pretty exciting plenty of speculation and some top signings. I was expecting a busy summer but perhaps not this early on. Gibson looks to be off, Brown will most likely follow and O'Shea I doubt will be sold due to his versatility however, I wouldn't mind if he did go. We look to be spending big this summer which is great news with the signings we have already almost wrapped up and hopefully 1 or 2 more to follow we look to be set for the next 5-6 years without needing any huge overhaul. Trophy laden times ahead me thinks.

Pato, Young, Jones, De Gea,

We are trying for Modric, We have held talks with Nasri but a deal long way off.

Forget Sanchez we will not pay £38 million for him he is going City.

Forget Snijnder will not meet wage demands.

If we dont get Modric we will only sign the players mentioned above, all these big names aint going to happen.

Deal to be confirmed before Friday evening assuming successful work permit application. United have agreed a fee and personal details to sign Pato Rodriguez from Independiente for £6.5M.

The deal will also include co-operation between United and Independiente with United loaning players to Independiente and United having first option on their young stars of the future.

I hope you are right - he is very good

man city put £28m for alexis sanchez and offer him £100,000k a week. i hope man united we'll make a bid for him, have seen him so manytimes, he got chritiano ronaldo fear factor to defender, which its missing now in our team.i don't what were waiting for, we went so quit about sanchez, or we don't have money.i do believe £30m for him its going to pay back in a year, i heard sanchez prefer to come to united or bercelona but that its not a reason for us to relax.also i heard sir alex contact him i don't know if its true or? ED.Do you know anything about that? {Ed001's Note - all I know is that you have held talks with Udinese, but they are very difficult to deal with and aren't looking to sell unless they can get the player loaned back for a season or two!}
