Football Transfer Centre

Steve Bruce is considering a January move for Man Utd's reserve team starlet Chris Eagles in January. It is believed that Sir Alex Ferguson may sell for £2 million, or alternatively allow the youngster to join Wigan on loan for six months.

Steve Bruce is renowned for bringing young loan talent through at Birmingham and is set to continue this trend at Wigan.

The Englishman was on the fringes of the first team squad last season, but has found himself playing mainly reserve football since.

On 28 April 2007, Eagles scored his first senior goal for Manchester United in a 4-2 Premier League win over Everton after coming on as a second half sub.

A move for Eagles and Wigan will be equally beneficial to both parties.
