Quagliarella Agent Confirms £10m Man. United Offer
-
Reports in England had suggested that Manchester United were looking to bid for Samdoria striker Fabio Quagliarella, and the player's agent has confirmed the interest.
He has had a solid season for Samp, but has caught Europe's attentions after his stunning brace on his Azzurri debut against Lithuania.
A report in the Daily Express this rsuggested that Unted were willing to offer £10m for him after the doubts over Luis Saha's situation.
Those suggestions have now been confirmed by the Quagliarella's agent, Silvio Pagliari.
"One month ago, Manchester United made an offer of 10 million pounds (around 15m euros)," he said.
"We think that Fabio is worth between 15 and 20 million Euros.
"Therefore, if the English offer remains, he will probably go across the [English] Channel."
Udinese and Sampdoria - who jointly share his registration - have supposedly agreed to let him go if a good offer comes in.
Both want around 10 million euros, so a 20m fee has been quoted, but it is understood that a realistic offer in the region of 15m will be accepted.
However, the clubs have chosen to remain cautious until an offer is actually tabled, with Samp general director Beppe Marotta saying: "We canÂ’t make any evaluations now, but we want to keep him here, also because of the excellent relationship we have with Udinese
"We would only consider letting him leave if we were to receive an extraordinary offer." -

RVN, you interested?? -
His strikes seem to be very instinctive, and he seems quite selfish when going for goal. He does have good strength and does seem to have two good feet. But these may all just turn out to be hype.
Personally though, based on movement and passing, i'd prefer Afonso Alves. He can take freekicks too, but it's not up to me to decide. We'll see who signs for United then. -

Salvatore Foti -
Somehow watching Quagliarella reminds me of Berbatov.
Maybe its because both have quick feet and strong upper body strength.

I'd like to see him at United. He should be able to replace Saha quite comfortably given that Quagliarella is strong, pacy and has an eye for goal.
Cheers.

This bags a question after the money spent on new players....
The Glacers borrowed heavily to buy Man Utd... now, where did these money came from to get these expensive stars? Surely the main bulk has to go to pay the Bank back. Unless money from the advertisers, kit sales and EPL rights provide the deed. -
he seems to score spectacular goals...
