VERON STAYING OR GOING?

Last updated : 28 July 2003 By Editor
Fergie has confirmed that Chelsea have tried to buy Veron
this summer, bus says that the decision was left to the
player, he wants to stay and that is that:

“Yes, there was a situation where Chelsea tried to buy him.
I left it to him and he wants to stay and that's good. I
think Seba will be with us next year. He is an excellent
footballer, as he showed today, and there is not a problem
between us."

But the Sun, the Mirror and most of the broadsheets are
reporting that Chelsea have upped their bid to £18m and
United are trying to convince Veron to go. It would seem odd
to increase a bid that was accepted by the club but not by
the player though.

If you want Veron to stay, the good news is that the Evening
News are reporting that he is going to leave. So it looks
like he is staying then.
