WHO ARE WE SELLING OR NOT BUYING THIS WEEK?

From The Mirror:

Sunderland will this week make a £12million bid for Chelsea striker Eidur Gudjohnsen following Manchester United's decision that they can't afford him.

United insist the £30m signing of Rio Ferdinand will be their last big deal this summer unless they sell first.

It's a big blow to United boss Ferguson, who has admitted he wants to add a striker to his squad - and Gudjohnsen was his first choice.

David May may be off to Birmingham to link up with Steve Bruce. The Screws reckon that Bryan Robson may be offered a job there too.

Rustu Recber tells Planet Football that he has turned us down:

"I will stay at Fenerbahce for one year," said Recber.

"I'm a good Fenerbahce fan. Money is not everything for me.

"Manchester United has offered me much money. I will think about it after the end of the season.

"They will have to wait for one year."

Presumably to work on his grammar.
