Steering this thread back on topic. Here's a news piece on Benzema's interest and love for United.
Still dont' see this transfer happening because:
1. 20+ million pounds is a lot of money
2. Lyon and United face off in CL play next month

Lyon striker Karim Benzema has admitted that he "loves" Manchester United and would be extremely tempted by a move to Old Trafford.
The France international has scored 21 goals in 33 matches this season, including two for his country.
His impressive ratio has attracted attention from top clubs all over Europe - and speculation of a move has furthered by claims that he "loves" Manchester United.
The versatile front-man has played down talk of a move away from Lyon stating that he would only leave Les Gones after helping them to UEFA Champions League glory.
However, 22-year-old Benzema has admitted that he would be extremely tempted by an offer from the likes of the Old Trafford Club.
"Milan makes me dream," he told Italian sports daily Gazzetta dello sport.
"Also because Ronaldo is there - he's my idol. He's from another planet.
"But I also love Juventus, Inter and Manchester United - the big clubs. What's important is to win.
"I would leave Lyon only to continue to win and when I also feel ready mentally."
