It's rumoured that the likes of Ronaldo and Raul may be sold this transfer window, mind you.

Ruud quite clearly wants to link up with Beckham again, which is one of the major factors in him most likely going to Real Madrid. Beckham crossing in to van Nistelrooy is something that many oppositions have fallen to over the years.

I would imagine Real Madrid will send in a new bid and Man Utd will accept it - provided Torres makes it clear to Man Utd that he is open to the idea of going to Old Trafford, mind you. Inter Milan have apparently sent in a bid of around £25-26m for Torres and although Torres' agent has been quoted in the past as saying that Torres is not interested in Italy, it would be interesting to see if the price detailed pushes Man Utd out of the fray. Some news sites are saying United is already put off by such a price and are looking to Defoe... God, I hope that's not true.
