Money-bags Manchester City have failed in a move for CSKA Moscow winger Milos Krasic.

The Daily Mail says Krasic has rejected an approach from Roberto Mancini's Manchester City, saying he only wants to join either Manchester United or Arsenal.

The Serbia international impressed in both group games against United in the Champions League earlier this season with the lively schemer scoring in the 3-3 draw at Old Trafford.

Several of Europe's top sides sent scouts to watch the 25-year-old, who can play down the right hand side or as an attacking midfielder, but City were the first ones to make a strong inquiry.

Despite having only one year left on his contract in the Russian capital, City were taken aback by CSKA's £15million valuation but their efforts seem to be in vain as he has made it clear to his advisers he only wants to join United or Arsenal.

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has ruled out a loan move for Ben Foster.

Ferguson insists that will not happen. And, without actually offering an explanation how, the United boss feels Foster can play enough matches to keep his England spot.

"There is absolutely no chance of loaning Ben out, absolutely none," he said.

"The World Cup is four months ahead. Let's hope he gets some football that gives him a chance.

"It is Fabio's decision but Ben's qualities are going to put him forward as a definite choice and England are not endowed with great goalkeepers."

Manchester United ready £18m bid for Porto defender "Rolando"


Manchester United are looking to Porto for defenisve
reinforcement, according to a report from The Daily Mail, and are considering an £18m bid for defender Rolando.

The 24-year-old has impressed with his displays in the Champions League this season. He has also been called into the Portugal squad by former United assistant manager Carlo Queiroz.

He has formed a solid partnership with Bruno Alves this season and is highly rated by his club, who reportedly value him at £28m.

United are said to be in the market for defenders currently as concerns grow about the long-term futures of Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand.

Rumours continue to link Vidic with a move away from Manchester, possibly to Spain, whilst Ferdinand continues to battle injury problems.
