Fergie in the MEN:

“Seba knew all along what was happening, so to say I was two-
faced about it is a disgrace. I spoke to him a few days
after we started pre-season training and explained that we
had accepted a bid from Chelsea because I knew we would have
an embarrassment of numbers in midfield.

“At that stage he shook my hand and everything was fine.
Then Chelsea said they couldn't pay the £15million we had
originally agreed and wouldn't follow through with the
offer.

“His agent was still talking to Chelsea down in London and
the day before we were due to leave for America, Seba came
and took all his stuff away from the training ground. We had
to telephone him and tell him he was still a Manchester
United player.”
