Real Zaragoza are eager to take Manchester United defender Gerard
Pique back to Spain, the player's agent has told
skysports.com.
The promising 20-year-old excelled during a season-long loan at La
Romareda last term but on his return to Old Trafford has found
opportunities scarce.
Pique, who at the end of last season spoke of a desire to remain in
his homeland for another campaign, has been involved in United's
first team squad but has been unable to interrupt the impeccable
partnership of Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic.
"In the next few months, I think that if things have not changed,
then I will speak to Manchester United for a positive solution,"
his agent Arturo Canales told skysports.com.
"But United do not want the kid to leave. If Sir Alex Ferguson does
not change his mind then I view the exit of Pique to Spain as being
difficult."
Injury doubts over defensive duo Wes Brown and Vidic could see
Pique promoted from the second string and it would seem highly
unlikely Ferguson would sanction the Spaniard's departure.
