Football transfer rumours: Pepe Reina to Manchester United?

The Mill isn't the sort of daily purveyor of transfer tittle tattle that likes to deal in nuances. Spare us your oblique references, your deals-on-the-quiet, your nudges and winks. WE WANT GOSSIP IN CAPITAL LETTERS THAT TELLS YOU PLAYER X IS GOING TO CLUB Y FOR £Zm, PREFERABLY WITH A FEW EXCLAMATION MARKS AT THE END FOR GOOD MEASURE!!!! Which is why the Mill is a happy little fellow this morning. "SIR ALEX FERGUSON WANTS PEPE REINA TO BE MANCHESTER UNITED'S NEW NO1," trumpets the Mirror. United are apparently at the head of a "queue of clubs who believe Reina may become available because of unrest at Anfield", which kind of ignores the fact that the unrestiest of the unrest seems to be over. Anyway, Ferguson is ready to splash £12m on the 28-year-old Spanish stopper , but he's been warned to keep his wandering hands away from Wesley Sneijder by Inter's Massimo Moratti, who has been piping a certain Rod Stewart classic into the Dutchman's bedroom at night. "FORGET ROONEY, WOLFSBURG'S £40M MAN DZEKO MAY BE EDIN TO MANCHESTER CITY," reckons the Mail, apropos of very little. If a move for the Bosnian collapses, City will move for "Mancini's favourite striker in world football" (as opposed to what? In space?) Zlatan Ibrahimovic . There are only eight capitals in the news that £8m-rated PSV Eindhoven midfielder Ibrahim Afellay is being tracked by Liverpool and Valencia (although a more pleasing 12 if we use Liverpool FC and Valencia CF). He's out of contract at the end of this season and could join the Reds or head to Spain (or join Arsenal, Inter, Juventus, Atlético Madrid, Everton or Zenit St Petersburg if various reports are to be believed) in January. Tottenham have strapped on a headband, tied their laces really tight, done a few derisory stretches and joined Real Madrid, Chelsea, Arsenal and Inter in the race to sign £20m Anderlecht hitman Romelu Lukaku . Everton desperately want midfield reinforcements and have set their sights on Inter's Sulley Muntari . David Moyes could face competition from Tottenham, Wolfsburg and Roma, three teams who are not likely to stand in the way of a possible move for Burnley's Chris Eagles . Although Rangers may. And Martin O'Neill is in talks with Al Hilal about "a tax-free £4.5m two-year contract".
