Manchester City Rebel Craig Bellamy Hints At Summer Interest From Manchester United

Manchester City outcast Craig Bellamy has hinted at a failed shock move from Manchester United to snap him up in the summer before he joined Cardiff City on loan.

Bellamy, 31, was the subject of repeat enquiries from Premier League clubs before he made the decision to drop down a division.

The Wales international has hinted that he would have needed a "miracle" to make the move to a side around the Blues in the table.

"Garry Cook [City's chief executive] said to me it was the most phone calls he'd had on a player for a while," Bellamy said to BBC Radio Five Live.

"He said 'You should take that as a big compliment' and I said 'Yeah, they all seem to want me apart from the club I'm actually at.'

"Tottenham wasn't going to get done and someone else came in above them as well which would have caused a few stirs.

"If I would have said I wanted to go there for one minute my life at Man City... staying there would have really tough for the next couple of weeks."

Asked if he was referring to Manchester United, Bellamy, he added: "I ain't gonna say anything but it would have been a tough couple of weeks.

"It would have been a miracle if it had come off. I sat down with my agent and we were realistic, do we hold out for it or do I go on?

"And I think because of the other club being interested I think Man City panicked as well and said 'you can go to Cardiff' and they pushed it through as quickly as possible."
