According to the Sunday Mirror, we are interested in bringing in Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres and Barcelona fullback Carles Puyol this summer.
United had a £24 million bid for Torres rejected last week, apparently. According to the NOTW, Forlan was a makeweight.
So Torres is probably worth about £12million but we would have to pay the same again to get rid of the lamentable Forlan.
United, Blackburn and Fulham are all chasing the signature of Middlesbrough youngster Stuart Downing, according to SkySports. He is one of six ‘Boro players who are out of contract at the end of the season.
