Manchester United are set to use their Brazilian twins as bait to land Sporting
Lisbon midfielder Miguel Veloso in January.


The Sunday Mirror says United may offer Brazilian twins Fabio and Rafael Silva on
loan as part of a deal to sign Veloso.

United, who had an £8m enquiry for the 21-year-old rejected by Sporting, are
preparing to return with an offer of £10m which will be enough to trigger a get
-out clause in Veloso's contract when the transfer window reopens in January.

Sir Alex Ferguson's brother, Martin, who is United's European scout, has travelled
to Portugal regularly in the two months since Veloso excelled in Sporting's 1-0
Champions League home defeat at the hands of the Reds.

Veloso said: "The best game of my career so far was when we played Manchester
United. They are a great team and it is the dream of any footballer to play for
such a club."

United would be too clever to sell the Brazilians. Getting them out on loan in a competitive league would be great for them. Its not as if they would get in Uniteds team any time soon anyway. There does seem to be a lot of speculation about Veloso. Not sure how he would fit into Uniteds future plans but he is a good player.

Yeah no way he'll sell them, there too godd a prospect imo. And i really dont rate veloso that much anyway, if he was at united we would have 3 defensive midfielders we only need carrick and hargo, DONT GET VELOSO SAF!!!
