Not reading to much into this storey to be honest, the club mentions a new contract - journos get on to his dad/agent - get a leveraged quote from them - shock horror agent says big club are intrested in a good player right before negotiations.
Sadly we are in a situation, were something has to give and i think it will be Mofro or Rodwell if im honest. Not that i want either to be sold but it is the part of our squad where we have a fair bit of fat that could be trimmed and i think we will need to trim from a financial point of view. We have Arteta our biggest earner, Cahill who can play there, Heitinga, Billy, Rodwell and Mofro - not forgetting Barckley coming through. If the manure hits the fan and we need an injection of captial its either Mofro or Rodwell IMHO. Worryingly the Mofro article comes the same day that Ferguson says there is a player he is after for a while but wont be available untill the summer, when he will go in for them again - i think its a fair assumption it could well be Rodwell.
Sadly i dont think we will get much more then 30 mill for either, not because there not worth it but other clubs know what that level of finance means to us and will drive a hard bargain, we are a bit of a soft touch in this regard from a finacial point of view - we sold Rooney and Lescott for far less then they worth IMO and can see it happening again, our negotiateing position isnt the strongest.
