Arsenal and United chase Sporting ace
Arsenal and Manchester United have been linked with January moves for Sporting Lisbon star Miguel Veloso.
The Portugal international's agent, Paulo Barbosa, claims the Premier League giants are preparing bids for the £16million-rated midfielder.
The 22-year-old, who can operate in a holding midfield role and is equally comfortable in defence, was reported to be a summer target for Tottenham.
Future
But with no move to White Hart Lane emerging, it now appears that Arsene Wenger and Sir Alex Ferguson will do battle for his services.
Barbosa told the
News of the World: "Arsenal want Veloso for the future and a deal could be done in the January window.
"But United are also watching the situation very closely."
