Manchester United eye Athletic Bilbao striker http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Llorente-c13671
English Premier League giants, Manchester United, are planning a €40 million bid for Athletic Bilbao striker, Fernando Llorente, in the upcoming transfer window. The Red Devils have already made enquiries about the availability of the 26-year-old forward
for a possible move to Old Trafford at the end of the season.
The Spaniard has had an impressive season so far, having scored 14 goals and provided two assists for Athletic Bilbao. He has been equally remarkable for his national side, finding the back of the net three times for the World Cup winners in the current
2012 Euro qualifiers.
Llorente is excellent as a striker but also has the ability to play as a winger, which may be one of the main reasons why Manchester United are keeping a close watch on him. After the departure of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629, Sir Alex Ferguson has not been able to
find a player who has the ability to perform such a versatile role.
Manchester City to trade Emmanuel Adebayor for Kaka
Big spending Manchester City are reportedly preparing to spend in the summer again, this time for Real Madrid star Kaka. After his disappointing form it is understood the La Liga side will not be hesitant in allowing the Brazilian midfielder to make a move
away.

away.

to a deal at the end of the season.
Europe’s elite battle it out for Marek Hamsik
