REPORTS: Man Utd Line-Up Shock Swoop For Disillusioned Chelsea Ace

Manchester United are considering a shock move for Chelsea midfielder Ramires, according to reports.

Ramires has settled well in the Premier League since joining Chelsea in 2010 for £18m from Portuguese side Benfica, making 38 appearances and scoring 5 goals so far.

However, its been reported in Brazil that Ramires is becoming increasingly disillusioned at Chelsea’s questionable form this season and may be willing to consider his future should an offer from a major European side come in.

Real Madrid were thought to be interested in the summer, and now its Premier League champions Manchester United who are monitoring his situation as Sir Alex Ferguson looks for a combative midfielder to add to his side, and Ramires fits the bill. The major stumbling block will be Andre Villas-Boas’ reluctance to sell, and it’s highly unlikely they would agree to sell to a rival such as Man Utd unless a huge offer was submitted.
