The Manchester United chief executive has assured the Manchester United fans that their club is more than capable of competing against Manchester City in the summer transfer window when it comes to signing top class players...
Manchester United can still compete with Manchester City when it comes to attracting big names in European football asserted David Gill in his latest interview to the press as both Manchester United and their blue neighbours are
embroiled in a fight to secure the signature of Marek Hamsik. Hamsik who currently plays for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 has already signalled his intent to play in the English Premier League but it still remains to be seen which club will go for the Belgian midfielder who has
caught the eye last season.
Hamsik aside, both the Manchester clubs also fought for Samir Nasri’s signature last year, battle that was eventually won by Manchester City as the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 midfielder opted to choose the Etihad stadium ahead of Old Trafford.
United finished second to Manchester City in the Premier League title race last season albeit just on goal difference but Sir Alex Ferguson is adamant to challenge City next year with an improved set of players.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Gill said, "We believe we can compete. Our turnover and our cash profits demonstrate we can invest in players as necessary. Other clubs may pay slightly more but we pay very good salaries. The romance of United is there for
everyone to see. A player coming to Manchester United has the benefit of working under Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson, playing in front of 76,000 every week, and there is our history and heritage and the commercial spin-offs.”
He added, "We shouldn't be shy or embarrassed or worried about not being able to attract top players because I firmly believe we can. You can play with great players in a fantastic environment. That's a very good package so why
wouldn't you choose that? If a player says 'I'm relaxed I can either go to City, United or http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 and it will just come down to a money thing' then they may out-muscle us.”
