Van der Vaart can come to United any day. I wonder if Alex Ferguson would go into a fight with Liverpool to get this player. If it's this season I believe that Van der Vaart would be stupid to join Liverpool when he could be getting CL football and a chance to play with his fellow countryman Ruud Van Nistlerooy. I really believe that Van der Vaart is the player we need.

(Warren) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 05 August 2003 08:00 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [Mufc] Van Der Vaart ------------> Anyone know about this...BBC's latest HEADLINE!! THIS GUY IS BRILLIANT! Manchester United and Liverpool will lead the �15m transfer chase for Ajax's Rafael van der Vaart if he quits Holland. Liverpool boss Gerard Houllier is a long-time admirer of the 20-year-old forward, who was outstanding for Ajax as they won the Amsterdam tournament. Houllier sang the young Dutchman's praises after his performance in the goalless draw against Liverpool on Friday - and his name is still on Anfield's shopping list. Liverpool were interested in a deal for Van der Vaart in the summer of 2002, but decided against an immediate move. Houllier will renew his interest if Ajax relax their current hard-line stance that Van der Vaart is not for sale at any price. But BBC Sport understands Manchester United have now also made their interest known and will make every attempt to pair him with fellow countryman Ruud van Nistelrooy at Old Trafford. United had spies in Amsterdam on Sunday to watch Ajax defender Hatem Trabelsi - but they were also running the rule over the impressive Van der Vaart. Man Utd close on Trabelsi He is expected to become a target for Europe's elite group of clubs, but it is believed the Premiership is his most likely destination. Van der Vaart is a product of the Ajax youth system, joining the club at the age of 10 and working his way through the ranks. He is now a regular member of Dick Advocaat's Holland squad and has already won seven international appearances. Ajax are insisting Van der Vaart is not for sale - which means Houllier and Ferguson may have to wait until next summer to land the player regarded as one of Europe's brightest talents. But both clubs are waiting for the first indication of Ajax's willingess to do a deal and will then launch a Premiership battle for Van der Vaart. ******************** This email and any accompanying attachments may contain confidential and proprietary information.
