Channel 4 believe that Inter may well sell Fabio Cannavaro
in order to make room for Auxerre defender Phillipe Mexes.
Apparently United and Chelsea are interested, but then when
any player is thought to be available we always are aren’t
we?

Meanwhile Lazio are willing to sell Jaap Stam after he
rejected talks for a new contract.

General manager Giuseppe Matteo Masoni said:

"The agreement with the Dutch defender will end on June 30,
2005 and therefore we won't be taken by surprise. In the
face of such a sure decision from Stam we have to evaluate
the offers that Lazio are receiving for the player."
