Gabriel Heinze is hopeful he is close to completing his transfer to Liverpool.

The Manchester United defender has made no secret of his desire to move to The Reds in what has been one of the summer's longest transfer sagas.

However, Heinze admits he has been left in the dark over some of the ongoing negotiations.

The Argentine insists a clause exists in his Old Trafford contract which allows him to leave United if another club make a bid of £6.8million.

Liverpool are believed to have met this asking price, but United are unwilling to allow the deal and Heinze is reportedly thought to be considering legal action to end the dispute.

Last to know

Heinze, though, is optimistic he will soon secure a move away from the Premier League champions.

"Sometimes the player is the last one to find out where he will play," Heinze told The Sun.

"I know there are several teams interested in me and that makes me feel really proud.

"I'll know precisely in what team I'm going to play at the end of the week. In a few days we'll see what will happen."
