United To Bid £25m for Sneijder


Netherlands international Wesley Sneijder could be on his way out of Inter at the end of the season as Manchester United have expressed an interest in signing the playmaker,De Telegraaf reports.

The Premier League table toppers are in the market for a new playmaker to replace the ageing Paul Scholes and manager Sir Alex Ferguson reportedly considers 27-year-old Sneijder to be the perfect addition to his midfield.

Sneijder is a product of the Ajax youth academy and also played for Real Madrid before joining Inter in the summer of 2009. The midfielder guided Inter to Champions League, Serie A and Coppa Italia victory in his first season at the San Siro and also reached the final of the 2010 World Cup with his national side.

Inter have been struggling to find their best form this term though and Sneijder has been linked with a move away from the Italian titans more than once.

Manchester United reportedly contacted Sneijder's agent about two weeks ago to discuss a possible transfer, and the English giants are willing to offer up to £26.4 million for the Dutch international.
