Mehdi Benatia dreaming of Man Utd move

Udinese defender Mehdi Benatia has admitted that a move to Manchester United could be pushed through in the summer. United are reportedly on the look out for a long term replacement for Rio Ferdinand, and Sir Alex Ferguson has been monitoring Benatia.

Udinese are desperate to keep the 24-year old at the club, but face competition from the likes of United, amongst other clubs who are desperate to land the player.


"To be linked with Manchester United is a dream come true," said Benatia.


"They are the biggest club in the world, and to have an opportunity to play at Old Trafford would be amazing, believe me.


"But I have a contract with Udinese, and they have to be happy before I can move."
