Hoep he plays well (well...not tooo well) as alot of eyes will be on him during this fixture. I like the kid and I'll say again that I wouldnt mind it at all if he came over to our club.

Queiroz - Veloso not a priority
But United assistant confirms midfielder is on the list




Carlos Queiroz has confirmed Manchester United's interest in Miguel Veloso, but says signing the Sporting Lisbon midfielder is not a 'priority'.


Veloso has been tipped to follow former Sporting players Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani to Old Trafford after impressing in the UEFA Champions League this season.

The youngster's agent Paulo Barbosa told Sky Sports News last week that 'informal contact' had been made between the two clubs.

United's assistant manager Queiroz - a former coach of Sporting - acknowledged Veloso was among a string of Portuguese players the Premier League champions have been watching.

But Queiroz downplayed suggestions of an imminent deal for Veloso, saying the club are well stocked in the midfield department.


Ridiculous

"The scouting department is everywhere and it would be ridiculous to say that good players are not referenced," said Queiroz in Record.

"Miguel Veloso, Joao Moutinho, Quaresma, Bruno Alves, Bosingwa - all have been watched by us.

"Do we want to get these players? Of course, everyone does, however we can not work with 200 players!

"We have six players in Veloso's position, we signed Hargreaves this season and, at this point, he is not part of our options to buy as a priority."
