Manchester United are leading the chase for Portuguese wonderkid
Miguel Veloso.
Real Madrid are also chasing the £10m-rated versatile Sporting
Lisbon midfielder but he has given the biggest hint that Old
Trafford is his preferred destination.
Velosos fellow countrymen Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani and are
already at United and the 21-year-old revealed he is eager to
join up with them.
Of course I would love to play for Manchester United, he said.
They are a great team and it is a dream for anyone to play for
great clubs.
Veloso who can also play in defence has become one of the most
sought-after players in Europe.
But Sporting president Felipe Soares Franco insists he is prepared
to fight to keep hold of his star attraction.
There is no chance the player will leave, he said. We are not
interested in negotiating this subject because Miguel Veloso is one
of our main players for this campaign.
