United - The Target is Sneijder!

And finally, our magnificent club has hit the headlines with regards to a potential transfer.

After losing our Premier League title to that lot from down south, Sir Alex Ferguson will be looking for that one special player to ensure we`re better prepared this season to wrestle that gorgeous trophy back.

Now the press have gone overboard and come up with the name of that one special player that Sir Alex is keen on signing, a certain Wesley Sneijder.

Sneijder, currently staring for Holland as the Dutch side march toward the final of South Africa 2010, has had a marvellous season at Inter Milan.

But, with Jose Mourinho having left and Rafael Benitez having taken over the feelings amongst the tabloid reporters are that Sneijder could well be lured away with Benitez keen to put hi sown identity on the Milan team and not rest in the shadow of Jose Mourinho.

Unfortunately, the proposed fee could be a stumbling block, with a mind-boggling fee of £35 million being quoted by the tabloid journalists.

With Sir Alex having recently been quoted as saying the Glazer family have always provided him with the players he`s wanted, could this be the ultimate test?

Will the money be found to lure the Dutch maestro to Old Trafford?

Or will some players have to be sold to create that financial balancing act that seems part and parcel of football these days?
