The Mirror:

Ronaldo is a £17million target for Valencia as Manchester United ponder a bid for Villarreal's Juan Roman Riquelme.

President Juan Soler said: "I want Valencia to do big things in the Champions League and Cristiano would fit perfectly with these plans. We will now speak with Manchester United."

United boss Sir Alex Ferguson will quiz United old boy Diego Forlan about £10mrated Riquelme, his team-mate and friend. Ferguson's brother Martin, the club's European scout, was at Villarreal last night to watch the midfielder against Rangers.
