    Manchester United Thread

    So who is out the door this summer and who will be in?

    Is Ronaldo saga continuing this summer and will he leave for Real Madrid?

    Who will replace Fergie when he does eventually retire?

    He'll be at a different club before the season is out, Fergie has missed his chance there i think by not playing him enough last season, hopefully he will come where the money is and come across the City, we could really do with him. As Barry as shown the footballers are not interested in the champions league they are interested in the money and playing.

    I have a feeling there will be a few players going this season from united. With Neville being eyed up by Middlesborough, that would be a good move for him if he can keep his fitness up.

    Manchester United have landed a world record £20m-a-year shirt sponsorship deal.

    United have replaced failed American *insurance giant AIG with another US *company, the Aon Corporation, who have agreed a *four-year deal, starting in 2010-11.

    United chief executive David Gill claimed the sponsorship “strengthened United’s position as one of the world’s biggest clubs”.

    Aon, the Chicago-based global financial services company, has agreed one of the biggest sponsorships in world sport and a record for football.

    Bayern Munich’s £17m four-year deal with telecommunications company T-Home was the previous highest.

    Gill added: “We are *delighted to be entering such an important *relationship with a *company of the *stature of Aon and to have its logo adorn our shirts from the start of the 2010-11 *season.”

    Aon chief executive Greg Case said: “It is a unique opportunity when two *leaders in their respective fields can come together in a *partnership like this.

    “Manchester United is one of the most recognised sports brands in the world.”

    In contrast, Barcelona donate £1.5m a year to Unicef in order to wear the *charity’s logo.

    AIG, United’s current sponsors, had to end their four-year deal after being bailed out by the US Treasury.

    Meanwhile, Gill met with Carlos Tevez’s advisor Kia Joorabchian yesterday. United are believed to be willing to pay the asking price, but the Argentine ace has asked for time before committing himself.

    Ronaldo is playing for Real Madrid next season. Doubt it will make much difference to Man U's success.

    80 million quid for a footballer is disgusting. The world has gone completely MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
