Sir Alex Ferguson has shown interest in West Ham striker Dean Ashton, describing him as the new Teddy Sheringham. His main traits are that he is a strong & powerful forward who is good in the air and a constant threat. He might be bought in to ease the pressure from the current United forwards Rooney and Tevez, who have been over utilized this season since the retirement of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and the injured Saha.
The United boss has also shown keen interest in F.C. Porto defender José Bosingwa da Silva. He might be the ideal replacement for the vacant right back position, since Gary Neville has been injured and Wes Brown, who has been occupying that spot since then has hinted at leaving the club. The Portuguese defender’s main traits are quickness and stamina.
It’s too early to say that these two would arrive at Old Trafford. But its worth noting that the transfer rumors have started doing the rounds, as the season inches to the finish line.
