Cafu is quoted in The NOTW as saying that he has talked to United:

"United are waiting for me to sign in the summer when I am a free agent.

''I've turned down many lucrative offers from England in the past - this is different. By New Year, I will decide whether I am going to England or staying in Rome.''


The Observer report that United, Villa, Dirties and West ham are chasing Port Vale’s Billy Paynter

The NOTW reckon that Keiron Richardson will be fast tracked to the first team shortly after impressing in the reserves.

Team talk quote Andrei Shevchenko:

"I'm feeling better now. I agreed with the (Ukraine) coach Leonid Buryak on staying out of the games because I'm not ready yet and I'm in a special recovery process.


"I'm working hard with the Milan medical staff to be fit again. I'm longing for a return to playing - I hope to make it soon."


"I'm serene. I don't bother about speculations of a possible transfer of mine.


"It just means that the journalists can't find anything else wrong with me and so they attack me in this way.


"What is certain, instead, is my desire to stay and win with Milan."
