Sir Alex Ferguson wants Bayern Munich's Philipp Lahm to join Manchester United and is willing to use striker Dimitar Berbatov as bait in a part-exchange deal. Manchester United are again weighing up a move for Bayern Munich’s Phillip Lahm, according to the Daily Mail. The right-back has been a long term target for the Reds and now with Gary Neville nearing the end of his career United are looking for an experienced replacement. The deal could be helped by the German champions approach for Ajax full back Gregory van der Weil. However any deal for the German captain may have to include a player plus cash deal likely to be Ji-Sung Park.
Werder Bremen are braced for a bid from Manchester United for World Cup superstar Mesut Ozil.Werder Bremen midfielder Mesut Özil is likely to receive heavy attention in the transfer market this summer, according to general manager Klaus Allofs. The club maintains that they are willing to listen to the player's wishes if a good offer comes in. Özil has just one year left to run on his current contract and Bremen may be ready to cash in on their prized asset in order to avoid letting him go for free next summer. According to reports, Manchester United are among the clubs interested in the Germany international.

Messi, Ronaldo, Kaka & Rooney - The Cursed Star?
Lionel Messi. He was selected as 2009 World Soccer Player of the Year. But yesterday, he and his team (Argentina) had a very bad memory as The Three Lions after having a heavy defeat 0-4 to Germany. Argentina was predicted to win but Germany is better. Messi didn't score any goal during world cup. I think, Messi will be the one in the top scorer list but he's not.
Wayne Rooney. Recently, he was selected as 2009-10 FWA Footballer of the Year. But he didn't performed well with England squad and same with Messi and Kaka, Rooney didn't score any goal. His injury really affected him to play better. England is out of WC after having a heavy defeat 1-4 against Germany.
Kaka. He was selected as 2007's FIFA World Player of the Year . He also a playmaker for Real Madrid. But recently, when he was playing for Brazil, He didn't score any goal. Why? And now, Brazil is out of WC. It's really out of my mind. I predict that Brazil will win WC this year :-(
Cristiano Ronaldo. He also was selected as World Soccer Player of the Year for 2008. He also was predicted to be in high performance during World Cup. But he is not. He only score one goal for Portugal and now Portugal also out of WC.
Kaka, Ronaldo, and Messi was the achievers of Ballon d'Or. Can you think why they can perform better? Why? They have been cursed? Oh no...
Why???????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who Should Be Manchester United Transfer Target ?
Bojan Krkic, 19, has been with the Catalans all his career and scored more than 500 goals in the youth ranks. I think Bojan should be a good pair with Rooney for attacking. In other sides, Berbatov MUST leave Old Trafford A.S.A.P!
Nemanja Vidic seemingly on his way out from Old Trafford and Rio Ferdinand’s injury worries unlikely to decrease as he gets older. So, Manchester United must sign Palermo's centre back Simon Kjaer in order to strengthen Man Utd defense.
A talented right sided full back, Maicon also should be in Old Trafford. He performed very well in both Brazil and Inter Milan, so I think Maicon is the best choice to strengthen Man Utd defense.
Lastly, the goalkeeping. Schalke's Manuel Neuer maybe a good replacement for Van der Sar who is near 40th birthday.
So, what do you think?
