Defensive Duo Set to Sign

Heinze's current club, French outfit PSG, have demanded more than the initial £6 million offered by The Red Devils but it seems the two clubs have agreed on a fee as the Argentine defender was spotted in Manchester.

Pique, regarded as one of the hottest talents in Spanish football, has fallen out with Barcelona boss Frank Rijkaard and is looking for a move elsewhere.

The 17-year old has admitted he'd prefer a move to Old Trafford rather than Premiership rivals Arsenal and Chelsea.

Fellow Barca defender Carlos Puyol, Eric Abidal and Matteo Ferrari are just some of the names linked with United to add depth to the defence that cost United their Premiership crown last season.
