United scouts were in Spain recently to watch the Alves play, and they
were rewarded as the Brazil international put on a stunning display in
Sevilla’s 2-0 win over Villarreal.
With the right-back position
a priority at Old Trafford, Ferguson is preparing to launch a ₤25
million bid in an attempt to lure Alves away from the likes of Chelsea
and Barcelona.
And the 24-year-old, who had a proposed move to
Stamford Bridge blocked earlier this season, has confessed he would be
thrilled to play for any of the major parties interested in him.
"I was upset when Sevilla turned down the Chelsea offer," the Brazilian said.
"I wouldn't wish the disappointment I felt on anyone. It was very hard.
"But
if I leave this summer and get a deal which makes me as happy then
perhaps it was not a disaster. I know Barca, Real Madrid, Chelsea and
United want me and I'd be honoured to go to any of them.
"The key thing is I move to develop my career and that I keep on winning trophies."
Alves
has won back-to-back UEFA Cups with Sevilla and Copa America with
Brazil, but his thirst for silverware is far from quenched.
He
added: "I need to play for a team which is always in the Champions
League, which goes out to win every game and which has a philosophy of
attacking football."

it is really expensive.. but I think it is not an one-shot thingy, rather spread out paying..
but if really good, we need replacement @ RB and probably a striker.
Wes Brown a bit unstable i feel, sometimes he's out of position when opposing players attack.
Seeing how Fergie is desperate for Brown to sign, i doubt he will sign Alves so soon. Even if he sign Alves, should be good investment for the future.
Hope Pique plays more, Man U need help in defence.
