Totally Bogus Rumor of the Day

Sir Alex Ferguson is a huge fan of Karim Benzema (who isn’t?). If you believe English footie tabloids (because they never lie), Manchester United are apparently prepared to offer either a flat fee of €32m or €9m + Mikael Silvestre and Louis Saha for his signature.

Let’s all laugh together. Because we all know it’s Benzema’s dream to be the back up of Wayne Rooney and Carlos Tevez. Hey, do you think he’d be allowed to play in Carling Cup matches? And of course Lyon need rejects like Saha and Silvestre to get further in their Champions League campaign.

Listen Fergie, even if you offered €32 and Saha and Silvestre, you still wouldn’t get Benzema. I suggest you read the memo. And stop being so damn greedy. You have enough young super talents as it is.
