The Cristiano Ronaldo transfer saga
just won't go away, but the Sunday newspapers have added a new
twist to the story: Kaka will be heading to Old Trafford to replace
him.
According to the News of
the World United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will
put a spectacular £70million replacement plan in place when - not
if - Ronaldo demands a summer move to Real Madrid.
United would use the expected world record fee for their
Portuguese winger to sign AC Milan playmaker Kaka, along with
Bayern Munich's Franck Ribery.
However, the Sunday
Express disagree and report that Sir Alex
Ferguson has dismissed further Spanish talk of Ronaldo moving there
in the summer as nonsense. The Reds boss also labelled former Real
Madrid president Ramon Calderon "a dinosaur".
The transfer speculation continues in the Sunday
People, with claims that Arsenal boss Arsene
Wenger is weighing up a £9million move for out-of-favour Liverpool
winger Ryan Babel.
Babel, who joined Liverpool from Ajax for £11.5m in 2007, had a
bust- up with Reds boss Rafa Benitez before last weekend's Premier
League clash with Blackburn Rovers and the 22-year-old is keen on a
move to the Emirates.
Contrary to Saturday's reports that Kenny Dalglish was off to
Newcastle United the Sunday
Telegraph claim the Kop legend is heading
back to Anfield as Liverpool step up their efforts to end their
19-year wait for a league title.
Dalglish has already been in talks with Rafael Benitez to
discuss returning to Merseyside to play a central part in the
Spaniard's backroom staff.
The Sunday
Mirror also report that former Liverpool
manager is heading back to his old club to help with youth
development, but will also enable Benitez to tap into his vast
experience.
Just as the legendary Bob Paisley offered Dalglish support
during the Scotsman's early days as boss, Liverpool's greatest
player will be around to advise Benitez.
And finally... the Mail on Sunday claim West
Ham United have two potential bidders ready to mount an £80million
takeover deal in the wake of the financial meltdown of Icelandic
owner Bjorgolfur Gudmundsson.
