Manchester United are reportedly
prepared to listen and accept loan offers for England international
midfield Nicky Butt, who is almost certain to leave Old Trafford this
summer.
Talks between Butt and Newcastle have broken down after United were demanding too much money for the anchor man, which seems the case why clubs aren't making a faster move towards Butt. But a loan deal does seem sensible as Sir Alex Ferguson seemed to have faded him out of his plans last season and Butt himself needs first-team football at a high-level. Interest from various Premiership clubs including Birmingham City, Aston Villa, Middlesbrough, Everton and Newcastle have expressed interest in the 29-year old, who has been at Old Trafford for an amazing 13 years. |
