Transfer News - UPDATE

As I reported over the past few weeks, Manchester United are heating up on capturing two massive signings of Robin Van Persie and Brazilian wiz kid Lucas. Both seemed to taper off of the signing with reports from all major papers and sources over the last week. Now after Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini has announced he believed they would not be signing RVP it looks as if RVP may be in a United kit sooner than later.

United Bound?

Lucas Moura, the greater Manchester club's other main target, is currently in Europe for the Olympics. According to my source, he is proposed to travel to Manchester to complete a medical this week. New reports from current club Sao Paulo, state no transfer fee has been reached yet. However, Alex Ferguson has set his sights on signing the young gun. As we seen in the past, Ferguson rarely doesn't get what he wants publicly. He has stated many times his desire to sign the 19 year old winger. Look for him to join RVP on the list of incoming players headed to Manchester in the coming few weeks!

Herrera has played himself through the Spanish international ranks but after a promising start failed to make the 23 man squad for the World Cup. Herrera's knack for striking from distance and his tackling ability seem a great fit alongside fellow Spaniard Juan Mata.

Manchester United v Everton FC - Old Trafford - * GAME OF THE WEEK* Manchester United - With Robin Van Persie jumping into the starting 11 along side Wayne Rooney, goals should be aplenty. The two combined to score 57 goals last year which is almost half as many United tallied all of last year. Ferguson will also look to the other major addition of the summer, Borussia Dortmund ace Shinji Kagawa, to have an instant impact. However, the reoccurring problem of the health of the defense seems to have come up again. Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Johnny Evans all have picked up knocks and are reported to miss the match as well as Darren Fletcher. This coupled with the rumors of winger Nani possibly moving on before the transfer window closes could see him start on the bench along side youngster Nick Powell. Even with these set backs, the depth of Fergie's side shows why they are favorites to claim yet another EPL title. Squad - De G...
