Fergie plots £12m Reina raid - Exclusive
Published 23:00 25/10/10 By John Cross


Sir Alex Ferguson wants Pepe Reina to be Manchester ­United’s new No.1.

United boss Ferguson is at the head of a queue of clubs who believe ­Liverpool star Reina may become ­available because of unrest at Anfield.

The Spain international is to hold talks with Liverpool’s new owners NESV after becoming concerned about the club’s long-term direction.

He could be the first man to move between Liverpool and their bitter rivals in either direction since Phil Chisnall left Old Trafford in 1964.

With Liverpool struggling under Roy Hodgson, American tycoon John W Henry faces a battle to convince top stars like Reina, Fernando Torres and Glen Johnson that the future is bright.

Ferguson has been assured that money will be made available for big signings after the Glazer family promised Wayne Rooney they will compete in the transfer market, and Reina would set them back £12million.

Liverpool do not want to sell, and especially not to their fierce rivals. But there is a growing feeling that Reina may be available.

The Spaniard is believed to be unhappy that Hodgson is using 68-year-old former keeper Mike Kelly as part of his coaching team and he has been putting Reina through some training routines.

Ferguson’s current No.1, Edwin van der Sar, turns 40 on Friday.
 
If they treble the offer it might just about be worth our while telling them to fuck off. If they don't treble the offer we'll just laugh in their faces.
 
Cue Roy Hodgson suggesting that this could be a distinct possibility.

are you serious mokoday?!
 
Disagree with the first bit, though admittedly it'll probably become a good deal more likely if Roy is kept on.

Agree about Pepe. We need him as one of the foundation stones of the new Liverpool we all hope to see.

Of course not, it's fucking ludicrous. £30 Million and I'd consider it.
 
30 million is a good sum, but there's no guarantee that we'd be able to buy a good 'keeper.

But if we keep losing our best players year after year I think I'll jump in a river.

Well, no

It's tool cold.
 
their is no way pepe would move to utd, likewise torres.

They understand rivalry with both having Athletico Madrid connections... The rivalry with them and Real Madrid is the similar to us and Man Utd... Just aint gonna happen, period. Purely bad journalism that is!
 
No chance in hell.

For 25M I guess we could look at it but even then not to any English side.

Reina should be our no1 for the next 10-15 years.
 
with roy 'we'll cross that bridge when we come to it' hodgson in charge, who is to say for certain who will stay and who will leave.
 
So the Budgie-faced old cunt has one of the World's best keepers having training sessions with someone three years older than my Dad.

Great work, you hapless twat
 
Fucking Ginsoak.

After all the shit he gave about fucking Heinze?

To quote my brother Ong : Fucking Manc wankstain.
 
You really think anything in that rubbish article is worth taking seriously, Brendan? :🙂
 
Of course it's a joke article, but can you imagine any talented players wanting to work under RH? Can you imagine anyone decent from a massive continental club wanting to sign for him? He has to go.

Fair play to him if he is. He'll be 43 in 15 years time.

Players will still want to sign for us because of our rich history, heritage and tradition. Liverpool is an institution in world football.

They may see Roy as a short-term manager brought in to stabilise the team. Many of us view him that way. If players look at how Henry turned the Boston Red Sox around, there may be a clamour to get aboard now. It's as good a time as any to get involved with the club.

Bright RED future ahead.................. and it's coming soon - hopefully with a new stadium!

I thought he was 27 oh well.

In any VDS is 40 this week.

No reason to see why Reina can't go til 38 or more so 10+ years so.

Dreamy's forte isn't numbers.
