Huntelaar eyes United switch
06 Jul 2008 - 10:50:18
Ajax and Netherlands star Klaas-Jan Huntelaar has spoken of his love of Manchester United, with the striker expected to leave his homeland this summer.
The 24-year-old recently rejected the offer of a new contract from the Amsterdam club and seems certain to move on, with a number of clubs across the continent monitoring the situation.
Huntelaar told the Dutch media: "I love clubs with great history like Ajax, I also love Manchester United.
"It's a club that makes me dream, especially as Ruud van Nistelrooy played there and did great things with them.
"I know certain English clubs are following me, like Manchester United, who are very interested in me."
Huntelaar, who is also being tracked by Real Madrid, has also been strongly linked with United's Premier League rivals, Arsenal.
A source close to the player told the News of the World: "Arsenal are keen on Huntelaar and he has confirmed he would be keen to discuss a move.
"Klaas-Jan is an out and out goalscorer, just the sort Arsenal have needed for many seasons.
"He might not have the silky skills you associate with an Arsene Wenger team, but he has an amazing knack for putting the ball in the net."
