Buyten’s agent, said:
"I haven't heard anything about an offer from Manchester
United. At the minute I don't think there has been much
interest in Daniel and there has not been any offers for
him. Manchester United have been interested in Daniel before
and we know that Alex Ferguson has watched him, but there is
nothing concrete in their interest. Daniel is happy to stay
at Marseille, but it would be very difficult to refuse such
a club as Manchester United. Manchester United are one of
the biggest clubs in Europe and Daniel was happy to be
linked with them.”
