Sevilla to move for Manchester United star; Napoli target made available for sale

Sevilla to move for Manchester United star

Sevilla are set to make a January bid for Manchester United midfielder Ji-Sung Park as the Rojiblancos look to add more quality to the centre of the park.

The South Korean midfielder is not really considered a first team regular at Old Trafford and he could be leaving the club in January, with Sevilla the favourites for his signature.

Sevilla technical director Victor Orta met with Park’s representatives last week and informed them of club’s interest in the Manchester United midfielder.

Sevilla director of football, Ramon Rodriguez, has been watching Park during the last few months and he has instructed the Rojiblancos to make an official bid in January.

Sir Alex Ferguson doesn’t see Park as a key player in the side and he could decide to cash in on him, although his high wages could prove to be an obstacle to the deal.

Despite being on the fringes at Old Trafford over the last two seasons, Ji-Sung Park remains one of the best wingers in Europe and there is no doubt Sevilla would get a gem of a player if only they manage to reach an agreement with United.

Napoli target made available for sale

Brescia forward Andrea Caracciolo will be allowed to leave the club in January, according to club president Gino Corioni.

The 29-year-old striker has been attracting a lot of interest lately, with Napoli one of the suitors, and Brescia president believes this is the right time to cash in on his most prized asset.

Gino Corioni admits he is prepared to talk to Napoli representatives in January.

“We can talk about it. There aren’t any players like him in Italy.

“Technically he is better than Luca Toni. He isn’t 30. He has matured a lot and is ready for a top club.”

Brescia are thought to be holding out for €10 million, but it is unlikely Napoli will be prepared to pay that much for a player who is yet to prove himself in Serie A.

Robinho: I am happy at Milan

Brazilian forward Robinho is adamant he is happy at Milan and says that he would like to remain at San Siro for next 10 years.

After struggling to adapt to life at Eastlands, Robinho moved to Milan last summer, and it seems he has finally found his peace.

“Milan is Brazilian in spirit. It’s impossible not to be happy here.

“I won’t move anymore. I will stay in red and black for another 10 years. Football is my passion and thanks to Milan I am happy again.

“My wife is also happy here. Our second child will be born in March, another boy. But we have yet to decide on the name.

“Milan is an important chance that I don’t want to miss. I know myself. I know that when I am physically healthy and I feel at home I can give my best.

“Milan is the ideal environment.”

It is little wonder the Brazilian feels settled at Milan seeing that he is currently considered a first team regular, especially with the Rossoneri topping the Serie A standings, but we are yet to see if he will feel the same way when things start turning for the worse.

    Benefits of having Park Ji-Sung on the starting lineup.
    1.) He never stops running, never gives up. What he lacks in skill he makes up for 20 times over in determination and work ethic.
    2.) He brings much needed money into United from Asia (I think everyone will agree we need the cash because of the Glazers).

    Sevilla can’t have PJS. We need every bit of help that we can get.

    Are you mad?!?!?!?! SAF of all people doesnt see Park as part of his PLANS?! cmon man, the fact that he is a first team regular and a real star at Man Utd should make you know better

      While I respect your opinion ColdTurkey, I cannot agree that Sir Alex Ferguson sees Park as an indispensable member of his squad, since Park has only made it to the starting line-up after Ryan Giggs had picked up an injury in the early stages of the season, while he only started 10 Premier League games last term. The mere fact the the 37-year-old Giggs is still preferred to Park clearly shows the Korean is not a key player at United.
