After Veron, I think Fergie may be off taking players from the continent unless he cannot find players of equal measure already familiar with the EPL.

Also, I think the best news for United's hopes to capture Rio has just come across the tape: Liverpool's negotiation for Bowyer has collapsed. Leeds still need to raise 15m this summer and Tel will want to make some additions. Plus, talks over Dacort's transfer to Juve have apparently fallen apart as well.

These developments bode well for United getting Rio and perhaps even at a price closer to 30m. The power has shifted away from Leeds. We'll have Rio by late Monday.

i think it'll be escude. silvestre isn't amazingly happy, though why he's not happy with playing at LB is beyond me.:confused: he had an excellent season last year. it might well be candela though.

if lazio can't afford to pay off their transfer fee for stam, then i'm sure fergie would be more than happy to get crespo if they can't clear their massive debts. they sold slas for well below his true value last year.

Crespo to clear Stam debt?
Speculation suggests that Lazio are offering star striker Hernan Crespo to Manchester United. Lazio still owe United a significant part of the fee for Jaap Stam and see the sale of the Argentine as a way of helping to clear the debt. New signing Juan Pablo Sorin has also been linked with an immediate move to Old Trafford.

Rio signing ends Thuram sale
Juventus’ dreams of selling Lilian Thuram to Manchester United are over after the Premiership side agreed a £30m fee with Leeds for Rio Ferdinand. The Bianconeri wanted to cash in on the Frenchman in order to raise funds to offer Parma for Fabio Cannavaro.

United out on their own in market
By Rob Draper

Manchester United are now in a class of their own in the European transfer market.
Despite paying David Beckham £100,000 a week, United's annual turnover of £130million and £21m yearly profits allow them to pick off the best deals.

While Leeds, with £77m of debt and Chelsea, carrying £97m borrowings, are under transfer embargo until they sell players, Arsenal have a new stadium to fund and baulked at PSV Eindhoven's £14.5m asking price for Mark Van Bommel.

Newcastle anticipate Champions League money, which funded the signings of Titus Bramble and Hugo Viana for £13m yet they are still £65.8m in debt.

Manager Bobby Robson admitted there would be no more spending this season.

In Europe, Barcelona and Real Madrid can compete with United but even they are having to tread warily as football's recession bites.

Real bought Luis Figo for £37.2m and Zinedine Zidane for £48.7m but are now feeling the pinch. They are trying to offload eight players, including Steve McManaman. Barcelona want to sell £100,000-a-week Brazilian Rivaldo.

Last week it was revealed that Italy's Serie A clubs had made a combined loss of £450m, meaning traditional spendthrifts Juventus and Lazio are out of the equation.

i guess the board's tight-fistedness us really starting to pay dividends now. however, if you spend lots of money you need to win too in order to make it back in other areas.

who is cannavaro going to now then? inter perhaps as they seem unwilling to let c.zannetti go to lazio.

stam is reportedly going to leeds for £10million, which means they'll finally give us the money they owe us. i guess that also means we can kiss goodbye to crespo and sorin.

if Fergie has any sense right now he'll loan or sell Veron and sign Rivaldo (to partner RVN) on a free on a two year contract. Peace.

Also Rivaldo claims that united are after him

I read a few articles today on Duff and it seems like Greame Souness wants to sell Duff for 20 mill plus. However, for some reason I have a feeling that we will not get Duff and end up with Rivaldo (which is not a bad thing at all ;)).

well for those of you as ignorant:D or as unimformed as myself the situation is this; Rivaldo has left Barcelona after his contract with the Catalan club was terminated yesterday. The Brazilian striker, who has been linked with Real Madrid and Lazio, had one-year remaining on his £120,000-a-week contract.

Oh well....Kenyon is saying that there are no more new signings....so i dont think rivaldo is coming
