In October, Dutch national coach, Loius Van Gaal insisted that Chelsea remain interested in landing Sneijder and the 29-year-old could re-kindle his relationship with Jose Mourinho. He further opined that Sneijder should leave Galatasaray and join Chelsea.

However, the Dutch midfielder had dismissed talk of a reunion with Jose Mourinho at Chelsea insisting he was happy in Turkey and not looking for a move in the Premier League.

The Express also reported in October that Manchester United are set to test Galatasary’s resolve with a £12m offer. And now, Turkish newspaper Sabah claims that Manchester United manager David Moyes has openly admitted interest in Sneijder and could offer €2.5m plus either of Nani and Valencia.

Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas insisted last month goal scoring issue is not a problem for his team but with only 9 goals this campaign so far, indeed there are reasons to worry about.

The Portuguese wants to solve his goal scoring problems by bringing in Real Madrid starlet Alvaro Morata on a loan deal, as per the report. Villas-Boas wanted to buy the 21-year-old as a part of deal that saw Gareth Bale joining Madrid for world record transfer fee of £85m.

Initially Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti was unwilling to send Morata on loan but the Italian has changed his heart and feels it will help the Spain Under-21 international’s career. It is understood that Villas-Boas is personally trying to convince the youngster to join the White Hart Lane in January.
