AS the world's biggest and richest club, Manchester United reach a global fanbase.

Part of the attraction for fans around the world has been the football luminaries, such as George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton, who have graced the Old Trafford turf in a Manchester United shirt over the years.

Recently, Manchester United have continued to attract or develop some of the game's biggest names, with England stalwarts such as Paul Scholes and David Beckham having been regular fixtures in the Reds line-up.

The Manchester United team, past and present, reads like a who's who of world football.

It is only fitting that a great team should grace a great stadium. And with Old Trafford's recent development and the closure of Wembley, the ground is easily the largest in English football, holding in excess of 60,000 fans.

Despite this capacity, the demand to see United in action is so great that tickets are hard to come by.

But it isn't only Manchester United fans who flock to Old Trafford. The standard of the ground is such that it regularly hosts high-profile games, most notably, the Champions League Final and Great Britain rugby league games.

Rock fans have also made use of the Reds's facilities, watching a number of high-profile acts at the ground.

But it's football that will forever be synonymous with the Reds famous ground - and with good reason.

The last decade has seen Manchester United under the shrewd leadership of Sir Alex Ferguson maintain a virtual stranglehold on the Premiership crown.

Manchester United has won the league no fewer than 17 times in their history - 10 times in the last 11 seasons. They are also Cup Kings too, winning the FA cup 11 times, the league cup twice, as well as winning the European Super Cup, European Cup Winner's Cup, and 3 times being crowned European Cup champions.

Manchester United has long become a name associated with success both on and off the pitch.

As club profits continue to grow, Manchester United have become one of the richest sports clubs on the planet.

With supporters club branches on every continent, it's hard to go any where in the world and not see somebody wearing the famous red shirt of Manchester United.

Douglas D-Day for United

QUOTE
June 26, 2009

SIR Alex Ferguson is agonising over a £20m gamble on Brazilian golden boy Douglas Costa.

Ferguson has identified the Gremio midfielder as a man with the potential to provide the goals and creativity that United will be in desperate need of in the absence of Cristiano Ronaldo. But at such a hefty price tag, he knows Douglas represents a considerable risk.

Attempts to sign the 18-year-old on an initial three-week trial have been rejected by Gremio, who despite intimating they will only sell for £25m, are expected to deal at closer to £20m.

That is still an enormous fee for a teenager who has never played outside of his homeland.

Ferguson has more than £100m to spend this summer, following the £80m sale of Ronaldo and the £25m that was earmarked for Carlos Tevez. But he is not prepared to splash the cash unless he is certain he can find the players to take United back to the summit of European football.

And he knows he needs attacking players who can provide the goals and inspiration of Ronaldo and, to a lesser extent, Tevez.

Lyon's Karim Benzema and Atletico Madrid's Sergio Aguero remain in his sights, but the United manager refuses to be held to ransom - even after being handed the biggest transfer war chest of his Old Trafford reign.

Douglas would be another pricey recruit, but Ferguson must decide if he can afford to miss out on a player who has been likened to Ronaldinho in Brazil.

Even if he has a patchy record of signing South Americans, Ferguson has always been drawn to the flair of Brazilians and Argentines. But in all his time at United, he has seen numerous stars from that continent taken out of his reach by European rivals prepared to take a gamble on them as teenagers.

Gabriel Batistuta was a long-term target in the 1990s, but after his goal scoring feats in Italy with Fiorentina, United could never afford to lure the Argentine hitman to England.

Dithered

United dithered over Chilean striker Marcelo Salas in 98, when he would have been available for £10m - only to eventually see him become a major success at Lazio.

If there has been a weakness in Ferguson's transfer policy, it has been his failure to tap into the South American market at the highest level.

Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos, Rivaldo, Leonardo, Kaka, Robinho, Lionel Messi and Pato can be added to the list of players that United have missed out on down the years.

All too often Ferguson has been forced to enter the market once they've already proven themselves outside of their homeland, therefore seeing their valuations soar.

But the failure of those players that he did choose to take a risk on are sure to weigh heavily on his mind as he deliberates over parting with £20m for Douglas.

Uruguayan striker Diego Forlan and Brazilian World Cup winner Kleberson proved expensive mistakes, with both struggling to adapt to English football.

At the other end of the spectrum, Juan Sebastien Veron might have proved himself in Italy, but at a cost of £28.1m, the Argentine ranks amongst Ferguson's biggest transfer blunders.

Policy

There has clearly been a change in Ferguson's policy towards South Americans, with him hoping to build a base at United in the same way that Arsene Wenger managed with French players at Arsenal.

He was prepared to spend around £20m on Anderson as an unproven 19-year-old from Porto in 2007.

The Brazilian midfielder might have already made the successful switch been to Portugal, but he had only just recovered from a career-threatening broken leg.

Still Ferguson wasn't prepared to let a player, who scouts described as potentially one of the best in the world, fall to any of United's European rivals.

Likewise, United have plundered Brazil for teenage full-backs Rafael and Fabio da Silva, as well as Rodrigo Possebon.

Ferguson swooped after their impressive displays for Brazil's Under-17 World Cup-winning side and, in the case of the Da Silvas, beat Arsenal and Real Madrid to their signatures.

Another Brazilian teenager, Dodo, is expected to come to Old Trafford in a £5.5m deal from Corinthians, but Costa remains his priority after impressing with three goals in the South American Youth Championship in January.

BENZEMA AGENT CONFIRMS UNITED INTEREST

QUOTE
Karim Benzema's agent has confirmed Manchester United are keen to sign the Lyon striker this summer.

The France international has been strongly linked with a move to both the Red Devils and Real Madrid, though Lyon are keen to retain his services.

The Ligue 1 side admitted on Thursday that Real had made an enquiry, while United have remained silent on their transfer targets as they look to fill the void left by Cristiano Ronaldo's departure for the Bernabeu.

But agent Karim Djaziri has now admitted Sir Alex Ferguson has earmarked his client for a move to the Premier League - and believes it is inevitable that Benzema will leave Lyon at some point in the future.

Djaziri told Europe1: "Ferguson wants Karim this summer, however his transfer fee will not be over 40million euros.

"He is only 21, the only time a transfer of a 21-year-old went so high it was the Robinho transfer to Real Madrid.

"Karim can't be more valued than David Villa, who will cost more than 40million euros.

"The question is not if he will sign for one of the big clubs, but when."

Djaziri's comments come just three days after he insisted Benzema would not be leaving Stade Gerland for at least another year.

ROONEY: I CAN BE UNITED'S MAIN MAN

QUOTE
Wayne Rooney believes he can compensate for the summer exodus of attacking talent from Manchester United - after admitting he has not been given the chance to shine so far at Old Trafford.

Key men Cristiano Ronaldo and Carlos Tevez have left the Barclays Premier League champions since the end of the season.

Already, it has been suggested that Rooney must step up and fulfill his potential this season if United are to maintain their lofty standards of recent campaigns.

And the England striker feels more than ready to meet that obligation.

"We've lost two key players and obviously I hope we can get a few players in," Rooney told The Times.

"Between them Cristiano and Carlos scored a lot of goals for us last season and the season before, but I would like to think I'm capable of filling that gap.

"I've said before that, if I can play in my right position, I'm capable of doing that."


Rooney has often been asked to operate out wide by manager Sir Alex Ferguson since joining from Everton.

The Liverpudlian is adamant that has prevented him from showing his best form on a consistent basis, and believes the time is right to make a permanent switch to the centre.

"I want to play in the position where I feel I'm best," he said.

"A lot of people think I'm best as a centre forward.

"To play in a Champions League final and to play week in, week out for Manchester United is a privilege and it's something I'm very lucky to be doing, but I don't think playing on the wing I can express myself as much as I like to."

TRIO YET TO MAKE BENZEMA BIDS

QUOTE
Lyon maintain they have not received any official offers for Karim Benzema despite him being linked with Real Madrid, Manchester United and Arsenal.

The 21-year-old striker is expected to leave France this summer in a big-money move, despite agent Karim Djaziri claiming the player wants to remain in his homeland to focus on the 2010 World Cup.

Rumour continues to link Real - who made enquires last week - and United with a bid in the region of £27million, while Arsenal are also thought to be tracking him amid reports Emmanuel Adebayor is to join AC Milan.

But Lyon director of communications Olivier Blanc is adamant there has been no bid for the forward and claims it would take far more than £30million to force any sale.

He said in L'Equipe: "We have not received any official offer for Karim, either from Madrid, Manchester or Arsenal.

"We had first contact with Real in the middle of last week.

"Anyway €32m (£27m) is not very realistic. If Madrid really made an offer, it would have been superior."

The same can be said about Huntelaar/E'to/Aguero/etc who never play in BPL, no? Some time we have to take some gamble to unearth the potential gems. Plus SAF has been doing ok in last few transfer's windows so not really worry much if we do get him.

Added on June 29, 2009, 6:44 pmIf he plays like that consistently, he would be a success here. He's no Ronaldo of course, and won't ever be as good, but he would still be a good player for us.

Apart from Messi & Kaka, no one will come close replacing CR in terms of the overall quality/package. But if Valencia can play like a traditional winger and putting in the crosses to assist our frontman (Rooney?) while chipping few goals himself, that will be a good start.

NO PUSH AND PUEL FOR BENZEMA

QUOTE
Lyon coach Claude Puel has admitted the club could let Karim Benzema leave if he wants to.

The 21-year-old is one of the world's hottest properties at the moment, with Arsenal, Manchester United, Inter Milan and Real Madrid among the clubs reportedly considering a 40million euro (£34million) bid.

Both Lyon and Benzema have always claimed he will remain at the Stade Gerland at least until next summer's World Cup, but Puel knows that could swiftly change.

"We know his importance at OL and his efficiency in our squad," Puel told the club website. "He's an exceptional player, but we also know the financial figures of the club.

"We will evaluate the situation with him when he comes back - July 2 - what he wants to do, we'll listen to him.

"For several months he has said that he wishes to stay with us for the year before the World Cup.

"If he has any dreams of leaving we will discuss them with him if there are any concrete offers, which is not the case at the moment.

"So there is no 'Benzema problem' because the player is still with us. Ahead of a transfer which could be out of the ordinary, there is everything to consider."

Puel insists, however, that Benzema will only leave if the club manage to line up a suitable replacement.

"We will study the situation if it happens to present itself," he continued. "This doesn't mean that he will definitely leave Lyon.

"For any coach it would be a great loss to lose Karim. It would mean that we have to replace him - therefore it would be out of the question to lose Karim if one or two players of his calibre were not coming in."

Benzema came through the ranks with the French giants and burst onto the scene in the 2007-08 season with 31 goals in 51 games, a streak that saw him named Ligue 1 player of the year as well as top the league's scoring charts.

The last campaign was less impressive for both club and player, as Lyon ended the season without the Ligue 1 title for the first time in eight years, but the France forward nevertheless scored 23 goals in all competitions - an average of a goal every other game.

Puel coy over Benzema future

QUOTE
Lyon manager Claude Puel has confirmed that the club have not received any offers for Karim Benzema although he refused to rule out a sale if a big bid came in.

With Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United and Arsenal all linked with the 21-year-old the transfer saga threatens to roll on over the whole summer.

The striker himself has accepted that he will leave the Ligue 1 side at some point but has expressed a desire to remain in France for one more season at least.

Amid all the speculation Puel stated that the supposed quartet of interested clubs had yet to make a formal approach for the France international and the situation would hopefully be resolved once the player returns from holiday on Thursday.

"We know how much Karim is important to our game and we know the financial data of our club," he told L'Equipe.

"We will take stock on July 2nd when he will come back from holidays. So far he has always said he wanted to stay with us, at least until the 2010 World Cup.

Nothing concrete

"We will listen to Karim, to his desire. Then maybe it will go further. So far there is nothing concrete and we didn't set any price for Karim. He is not to sell.

"If he would have a desire to leave, we would see if there would be any concrete offers, which is not the case at the moment. Anyway that won't mean Karim will leave.

"The departure of Karim, above all after the departure of Juninho, would be a loss. He is an exceptional player.

"We can lose him if we replace him with one or two players of his level. We have to make sure the group improves."
