Keeper denies Red Devils link

Thu, 08 Oct 08:04:27 2009

Inter Milan goalkeeper Julio Cesar has denied speculation he is set for talks with Manchester United over a move to the Barclays Premier League.

Julio Cesar is widely regarded as one of the world's best goalkeepers and reports suggest United will do their utmost to prise him away from the San Siro in January to replace the ageing Edwin van der Sar, following a number of poor performances from Ben Foster.

The Brazil international's wife revealed that a "big club" have made enquiries but Julio Cesar has dismissed her comments, saying: "I deny everything. I have a contract with Inter."

Meanwhile, Inter have also rubbished the reports and technical director Marco Branca claims the club are working on a new deal for the 30-year-old whose contract runs to 2012.

"We are already working on a solution," Branca said. "Soon his contract will be sorted out.

"I don't see any problems, the discussions are continuing in a calm way."

According to Julio Cesar's agent, United are interested in the Inter number one, but Josias Cardoso is confident of putting an end to speculation shortly by agreeing a new deal with the Serie A club.

"United showed their interest for Julio but until now have not made an official offer," he said. "At the moment we are talking with Inter to renew Julio's contract, but we have not yet arrived at an agreement.

"I hope to succeed before the end of the month, that's my aim."

  5. Hmmm, no-one notice that this speculation has come­ about very conveniently as he is discussing a new­ contract?

    Typical agent chatter trying to get him a­ few extra grand!!

  6. This is probably media hype, considering Foster has­ failed to impress this season so far. Usually, I pay no­ attention to anything the papers say, I just wait and­ see what happens.

  8. Who in earth will let his right arm off??? When­ Mourinho comes to ManU, he could bring the keeper with­ him @ that time.
    That's what he will do if he is­ smart enough. Also what if the keeper went to ManU and­ Inter get worse. Do you think Mourinho still has chance­ to join ManU????

  9. If Mourinho lets him come to us, he's doing it­ because he is getting Sir Alex's job when he­ retires
