Manchester United are close to bring Panathinaikos starlet Sotiris Ninis to Old Trafford, according to Forza Roma.
The 20 year old Greek international is a highly rated youngster in Europe. Some of the top teams from Serie A who have been chasing Ninis include AC Milan, Roma, Inter. Even Arsenal are said to be interested in the player, who was part of the Greece squad that traveled to World Cup 2010.
Sotiris Ninis can play either as an attacking midfielder or as a winger. So he is seen as a natural replacement for the aging Scholes and Giggs. But didn’t we buy Zoran Tosic with similar intentions, only to offload him after making one appearance for the Red Devils!
Sir Alex Ferguson is reported to pay around £9.6 million to bring Ninis to Old Trafford. He’s a young player and would surely add an injection of youth into the United ranks.
