Manchester United are being linked once more with Argentinian centre back Ezequiel Garay. With Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic in their thirties and increasingly battle weary – and Smalling and Jones still coltish – Manchester United are seemingly looking for someone to bridge the gap alongside Jonny Evans.
The 26 year old Argentinian, currently with Benfica, had a 3 year spell with Real Madrid and also has 11 caps for Argentina, since his international debut in 2007.
The Independent claims that the Daily Mail claims that an unnamed source claims that Manchester United, along with Juventus, are interested in taking the £15m rated defender in the summer.
I don’t need to tell you what Argentinian defenders are like. Suffice to say, you wouldn’t want to be caught kissing one of their girlfriends if you want to keep hold of your family jewels. But this Argentinian defender also has a goal in him.
So, Manchester United fans, does the squad need any more centre backs?

Seems to be getting alot of press, but IMO he is a poor defender, his positioning and leadership skills are woeful. I doubt were see Alex buying him.
