English champion Manchester United is all set to make a move for Russian goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev in the January transfer window. CSKA Moscow, where the goalkeeper is currently playing, has reportedly given permission to United to talk to goalkeeper about the playing terms in January. It is pretty much understandable that Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is not impressed with United’s second choice keeper Ben Foster who has failed to deliver the kind of performance he was expected to as the regular keeper Edwin van der Sar has been sidelined since the start of the season through injury.
It has been reported that CSKA Moscow could claim £10million transfer fee for Igor Akinfeev. Well, it could be decreased some through negotiations, but it is pretty much certain that Manchester United would make a move, if the Old Trafford think-tank does not change their decision dramatically.
