Man Utd price Liverpool out of Valencia battle
Manchester United have priced Liverpool out of the race for Wigan Athletic winger Luis Antonio Valencia.
The Mirror says Reds boss Rafa Benitez has made inquiries about Valencia and was ready to spend around £6million on the Ecuador star who can play on both flanks.
But apparent interest from Manchester United has pushed the fee towards £10m, well beyond Liverpool's budget. Negotiations are already under way to thrash out a deal.
Do we really need him?
his another midfielder another winger...we need strikers ..finishers...and defenders....y do we need another winger
ya i oso dunno what ferg is thinking
maybe next season nani 1st team then this newbie is sub leh
But he is really very good and also young... Replacement for Park in the near future...
“I don’t want to lose players of their calibre but I’m a realist,"
admitted Bruce. “If the big clubs wave their cheque books it’ll be hard
to send them away. And it will have to be the big clubs because of the
money we’d want.”
The Latics want around £10m for 22-year-old
Valencia, who joined the club for just half that from Villareal.
23-year-old Honduran Palacios cost the club a bargain £1m from Olimpico
and Wigan are hoping to seal a massive profit by selling him less than
a year later for £5m.
Deal is looking more and more realistic.

Replacement for Park, abit too soon right?
I was thinking Park would finally be given a decent run in the team next season with Giggs slowy fading to a subs role.
i hope we get a striker, not a winger..
backup for ronaldo. why no one see it this way, you never know, he may just say goodbye.
youtube got some of his videos and hes not bad
but i dont think hes as fast as nani or ronaldo
gotta work on his pace
but he crosses rather well
its a precaution.. after giggs and ronaldo, we have nani(still inexperience) and park.. it anyone is injured.. then it won;t leave the rest with much needed rest and options, so i think Saf thinking right, he's the boss remember?
Why would SAF sign an Arsenal reject?
