GIUSEPPE ROSSI is ready to ask Sir Alex Ferguson whether
he has a future at Manchester United - and is hoping the Old
Trafford boss will give him a chance to impress if Louis Saha
misses the start of the season.
The New Jersey-born Italy Under-21 striker enjoyed an impressive
loan spell at Parma last season after struggling during an initial
spell at Newcastle.
Claudio Ranieri, the 20-year-old's manager at Parma, has now taken
charge at Juventus and has put Rossi on his wish-list. But the
forward wants to make the grade at United and hopes to get the
right message from Ferguson even though he is behind both Saha and
Alan Smith in the pecking order and the club are actively seeking a
new striker.
"It is all a bit confusing at the moment, but I hope to have a
better idea of what will happen after the European Under-21
Championship, " said Rossi. "All I will say is that my main goal is
still what it has always been - to cut it with Manchester
United."
