  SAHA IS THE £10M TARGET FOR KEANE

  

   

  SAHA: Ready

  Monday July 28,2008

   

   

  SUNDERLAND manager Roy Keane has tabled a £10million bid for out-of-favour Manchester United striker Louis Saha.

   

  Keane, who completed Pascal Chimbonda’s £4m move over the weekend, is desperate to improve his depleted strike force because Kenwyne Jones could miss most of the season with a serious knee injury.

   

  Saha has promised to give Keane an answer in the next few days, but the Frenchman has been impressed with Sunderland’s ambitious plans and the promise of first-team action.

   

  But Keane might have to increase his offer, with Sir Alex Ferguson seeking to hold out for £12million. Keane would pair Saha with El-Hadji Diouf as the Bolton striker had a medical at the Stadium of Light ahead of agreeing a £2.5m deal.

   

  Diouf was left out of Bolton’s pre-season friendly at Macclesfield on Saturday.

   

  Keane yesterday celebrated Chimbonda’s arrival, saying: “Pascal is one of those rare players who can play anywhere across the back line and that will be invaluable.

   

  “And he also has a lot of Premier League experience, which can only be a plus for us.”

  Looking at SAF's preference for Berba and possibly Henry, i tink he want someone to supply Rooney. Meaning let Rooney go more upfront and the new striker behind him.

   

  Huntalaar is better being the out-and-out striker leh.

   

  Duno la.. in SAF we trust. LOL

  Several clubs in hunt for United striker

  

   

  Sunderland manager Roy Keane could reportedly win the race with Fulham, Bolton Wanderers and several other clubs to sign Manchester United striker Louis Saha.

  It is being claimed that former United skipper Keane could be set to pay £10million for the 29-year-old French striker who has been hit by injuries.
  
  The Manchester Evening News says Keane hopes to have Saha and El-Hadji Diouf up front for Sunderland in the new season which begins next month.

  Sell the Tofu Striker. Although he is good while he played, he spent more then half his life at OT on the treatment table.

   

  10 mil is a good price and with the money fergie can invest in a new striker.
