Seen a lot of reports of our scouts spotted in Portugal in the last few months mainly to watch Porto, Benfica and Sporting Lisbon.

Porto's Fernando, Benfica's Matic and Sporting Lisbon's William Carvalho are the names that keep popping up the most.

Manchester United go to Portugal to pursue midfielder, he helps transfer by changing his passport

Manchester United struggled in midfield again against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday and this weekend David Moyes has continued his pursuit of players in Portugal, probably looking for a midfielder he can sign in the January transfer window. Manchester United have been linked with a move for Porto's Fernando several times, he has a buyout clause of €30m but his contract runs out at the end of this season and he's not keen to sign a new one.

The only way for Porto to get any money for the midfielder is a January sale and the continued scouting trips from Manchester United are helping their move for Fernando. Another thing helping Manchester United is Fernando applying for Portuguese citizenship. He's lived in the country for several years since moving from his native Brazil and as such qualifies for a passport. Being Portuguese would mean that Fernando didn't need a work permit because he'd have an EU passport.

With 26 year old Fernando never having represented the Brazil national team it could be hard to get clearance for him to play in the Premier League, but Portuguese citizenship would negate that worry. A Bola said in October that Fernando was in the final stages of applying for the status change.

O Jogo claim in their Sunday edition that Manchester United sent scouts to Porto's match against Academica and, similar to scouts from Monaco, they think the target was again Fernando.

Lol, when did Keane say he was an average player?

He said something along those lines in his book. Said he didn't rate himself highly so was determined to keep improving as player as he went on. Whether he actually believed it or not is another issue, it's the mentality.

Interesting to hear Butner's interview after Wednesday's game, saying the players are to blame for the bad performances.

When asked about the preparation gripe Ferdinand had he says he always try's to be prepared no matter what. "I make sure I'm always ready coz you never if somebody can get injured or something I make sure I'm always ready"

David Moyes was in attendance as Atletico Madrid saw off Porto on Wednesday, but Koke is ignoring rumours suggesting he is the subject of interest from Manchester United.

 

The Red Devils are known to be in the market for midfield reinforcements, having spent much of the summer looking to bolster their creative ranks.

 

Koke fits the profile they are after, with the 21-year-old having both age and ability on his side.

 

He has shone on a regular basis for Atletico since breaking into their first-team ranks and has earned senior international recognition with Spain.

 

Koke played the full 90 minutes in midweek as Atletico eased their way through their final group stage fixture in the UEFA Champions League.

 

The youngster is, however, adamant that he is unaware of any imminent approach from England and claims to be happy where he is - having only recently committed himself to a new contract which is due to run until 2018.

 

Koke told Canal Plus on the United reports: "I didn't know anything (about Moyes watching on), but I'm not concerned (with any of that). I renewed in the summer."

 

Atletico were happy to accommodate Moyes and he held talks with the club's sporting director Jose Luis Caminero.

 

He claims that no transfer discussions were held, with little indication offered from the United camp that they were there to cast an eye over potential targets - with in-form frontman Diego Costa also said to be in the thoughts of the Premier League champions.

 

Caminero said: "I suppose he came to see us because Atletico are a Champions League team and because they also qualified for the last 16.

 

"We spoke, but he didn't tell me exactly why he had come."

 

Hmmm

 

Doesn't sound impossible

 

And apparently that Fernando deal could involve Anderson in exchange

Would you lot be happy with Fernando/Koke/CB ?

Manchester United manager David Moyes has reportedly sent out representatives to watch Internazionale's Fredy Guarin ahead of making a January offer for the midfielder.

 

The 27-year-old has been identified as the player needed to bolster Moyes' struggling midfield, in which he has largely played 40-year-old Ryan Giggs and centre-back Phil Jones in the middle of this season.

 

Guarin is well known to one current Premier League manager - Tottenham Hotspur's Andre Villas-Boas, having won the treble under him at Porto in 2011.

 

The Colombian can also play in the Champions League knockout stages, as Inter finished ninth in Serie A last season. Guarin joined Inter from Porto for £9m in May 2012, turning his loan deal permanent.

 

It was been reported that Inter could be open to an offer of £15m for the midfielder.

Yeah a coach off RAWK was saying that explosive players like RVP would suffer under Moyes because he trains all his players the same rather than creating customised individual training plans. He said Rooney would benefit due to the intensity of the cardio training as he's a player who struggles to maintain a good level of fitness but players like RVP wouldn't benefit and would pick up more frequent soft tissue injuries.

 

He's been pretty accurate with his predictions so far.

RVP out for a month due to thigh injury picked up during midweek game.

 

@raymondverheije: Btw, how on earth did RVP play the full 90 minutes today after being injured for a month? Don't be surprised if RVP picks up new injury soon

Tweeted that 5 days ago.
