City to swoop for Vidic (Times) |

MANCHESTER is on course for another summer of transfer strife with wealthy Manchester City preparing to move for their neighbours’ unsettled centre-back Nemanja Vidic. The move would form part of City’s strategy to replace Manchester United as England’s premier football club, and echoes their successful poaching of Carlos Tevez from Old Trafford last year.
Like Tevez, Vidic is understood to feel undervalued and he has attracted the interest of several leading clubs, including Real Madrid and AC Milan. The 28-year-old Serbia international’s contract expires in 2012 and United are yet to talk about extending it.
Despite signing Joleon Lescott and Kolo Toure for combined transfer fees of £40m, central defence remains a weak area for City. An approach to Vidic in the summer would be modelled on the attempt to lure John Terry from Chelsea in the last close season. City promised to double the then-England captain’s wages to £250,000 a week. Encouraged by communication from Terry that he would move should a transfer be agreed with Chelsea, City made a series of substantial offers, all of them rejected.
City’s interest is unlikely to be welcomed by Sir Alex Ferguson, United’s manager. He has had to deal with problems in central defence all season, with both Vidic and Rio Ferdinand frequent absentees. In January, United agreed an £10m deal for Fulham’s Chris Smalling. They are also monitoring the centre-back’s England under-21 teammate Jack Rodwell, of Everton, and Denmark international Simon Kjaer. Vidic, inset, feels that performances that saw him named as the Premier League Player of the Season last term should be rewarded with promotion into the £100,000-a-week wage bracket. Offers from City and Madrid to exceed those terms means Ferguson would have to sell to a major rival, improve Vidic’s pay or try to manage a disgruntled performer.

Chairboys capture Heaton
Goalkeeper arrives on loan until end of the season
Wycombe Wanderers have snapped up Manchester United goalkeeper Tom Heaton on loan.
Heaton has joined the Chairboys on a temporary deal until the end of the season.
The England Under-21 international has yet to make a senior appearance for United, but has enjoyed numerous spells away from the club.
Chairboys boss Gary Waddock was happy to bring in the highly-rated custodian.
"I'm delighted to have signed someone of his quality," Waddock told the club's official website.
"Coming from a club like United and with the league experience he has gained, I'm sure that Tom will be a very good acquisition.
"Manchester United have been very helpful in letting Tom join us and I'm looking forward to working with him."
