£4million not enough to make United sell
ROY KEANE has failed with a £4million bid for
former Manchester United team-mate Darren Fletcher.
The Sunderland boss has made the midfielder one of his top
targets — despite saying almost three years ago: “I can’t
understand why people in Scotland rave about Darren Fletcher.”
Keane is considering going back with a £5m offer, though Alex
Ferguson is keen to keep 24-year-old.
He said: “You don’t want to go overboard on your valuation of
players. You have to be prepared to say ‘that’s a lot’ and back
away.”
