Manchester United: United watch winger

Manchester United are on the trail of Lyon winger Florent Malouda, in addition to his team-mate Michael Essien. Ghanaian midfielder Essien is a long-term target for The Red Devils, with the Premiership giants tipped to launch a bid in the summer. But they could make it a double raid on the French champions with reports suggesting Malouda is a target for United. Sir Alex Ferguson's brother Martin watched Lyon's UEFA Champions League quarter final with PSV Eindhoven on Tuesday and was believed to have been impressed by Malouda.
