Rivals Manchester City have been linked with a sensational summer swoop for Nemanja Vidic.

United's tenacious centre-half has been the subject of much speculation in recent months - with Barcelona and Real Madrid both strongly linked with a £30million bid for the Serbian.

Reports have long hinted that Vidic is not enjoying life at Old Trafford and is keen to move to pastures news for a fresh challenge.

The Sunday Times reports that Manchester City could be set to provide Vidic with the opportunity to jump ship at United - joining ex-Red Red Carlos Tevez at Eastlands.

Despite the press reports, the move seems an unlikely one. Sir Alex Ferguson and United's supporters would hate to see another prize asset join City, while Vidic is reportedly unsettled in the North West so would surely prefer a move abroad.

However, the story is sure to fuel more talk of a power shift in Manchester as City continue to look at buying their way out of a silverware drought spanning over three decades.

Like, ok, if he's not settled and goes to Barca or Real i can understand it, i won't like it, but i'll understand it.

But going to city ould be a step down not sideways.....

There's no chance, whatsoever, he will go to Citeh. It would make no career sense for him, i don't think he's a money grabbing cnut so.... Vida, stay

he is missing probably one of our biggest game because he wants to leave for a place that doesnt rain everyday. if you ask me it sounds a bit greedy to me

if reports are and he is really injured, then i plead for forgiveness because i do love vidic. if not...piiss off you are not the only great player to play for our team.

i'll beg when fergie begs

No Smoke Without Fire

Thank you vidic for the work you done for us. its understandable you need change in your life. You could have been a legend here but like most players of your generation lack loyalty.

Hope you change your mind by summer but i just dont see it.
