United Bid For Eto'o - WatchMUFC - 13-06-2009
United are lining up a move to take Samuel Eto’o to Old Trafford as they prepare to fill the void left by Cristiano Ronaldo’s impending departure.
Sir Alex Ferguson is eager to find a replacement for the Portugal forward as soon as possible and has made a firm inquiry about Eto’o. The United manager is confident of getting the Barcelona forward and knows that he needs to bolster his roster of strikers if Carlos Tévez leaves the club this summer.
Eto’o is one of Manchester City’s leading summer transfer targets, but United look like beating their rivals to the Cameroon player’s signature.

According to his agent E'to has decided against joining the bitters!He said that the player would have to take a 180' u-turn to go there?He wants to stay at Barcelona?.There is only one reason he would have gone there THE MONEY!!!!and it appears that even the offer them wanting to make him the best paid footballer in the World(£250,000 a week)he still does not want to go there!!I personally find that very funny and between them and Real Madrid and the pressure they are piling on themselves by throwing all this cash around,it will be Utd again next season with a performing as a solid unit that will be lifting the trophys again next May.

It looks like Valencia will be Sir Alex's first signing this year..Everyone else mentioned going elsewhere where the money is crazy(Rafa)..Benzema we will wait and see although it seems he wants to stay with his club for one more year.
Hope Sir Alex has a few others in mind now that he is back to work this week.Can't wait ,hopefully we will be surprised with a good signing.
