Manchester United Football Club look set to miss out on Mesut Ozil.
Although Sir Alex Ferguson was non-committal when asked of his interest in the player at the weekend, it is though the Werder Bremen ace is high on his list of targets.
However, according to reports in Spain, the Reds are on the verge of missing out on the German international, who is believed to have agreed a four-year deal with Barcelona.
Although none of the involved parties have yet confirmed this move, a fee of just £10million has been mooted, which would surely be one of the bargains of the summer.
Ozil has just twelve months left on his contract with the Bundesliga club, and he is thought to have been Barca’s second choice to Arsenal skipper Cesc Fabregas.
Once it was established that the Spanish international was staying at the Emirates Stadium they upped their interest in Ozil, who has also been linked with Chelsea.
