Fabio eyes loan move
Brazilian keen on first-team football

Manchester United defender Fabio da Silva has indicated he would jump at the chance to join Sporting Lisbon on loan.

Reports in Portugal claim Sporting are keen on signing the 19-year-old on a temporary basis as they look to bolster their squad in the summer.

Fabio, who completed his switch to United in 2008, has had less chances to shine than his twin brother, Rafael, at Old Trafford, which has restricted him to just one start in the Premier League this season.

The Fluminense product has now said he would not mind being sent on loan to Sporting to gain more first-team experience.

"If I have to be loaned out, I want it to be to Sporting," he told Abola. "Sporting are a big club, with a big tradition.

"Here in England and in Brazil, Sporting are very known and respected. Who would not like to play at Sporting? If it is to have more playing chances then there is no problem.

"The coach would like me to continue in the squad but my agent thinks I will not have many opportunities and so he has advised me to play elsewhere.

"A meeting is scheduled for the end of the season, so we can determine all that."

Subject to a work permit, the deal for the Chivas forward will be completed on July 1. 'Chicharito', as he is known, will become the first Mexican player to sign for United.

As part of the deal, United will play a match to open the new 45,000 capacity Chivas Stadium in Guadalajara this summer. Sir Alex Ferguson said: "I am delighted to reach agreement with Chivas to bring such an exciting young striker, who has been in such prolific form for both his club and his country.

"We are equally excited to play our first game in Mexico, opening the magnificent new Chivas Stadium in July."

Chicharito passed a medical in Manchester this week and has an impressive strike-rate at club level, scoring almost once every two games. However, he has done even better for his country, with four goals in four appearances, making him a contender for the World Cup.

Nani scored 2 important goals yesterday, but it was not enough.. United wants to focus on domestic matters now!

Quote:"We scored three goals and I think it was one of our best performances, so we are disappointed. They were a bit lucky. Of course, we have to give everything we have now to try to win the league and that's where we go now."
