Owen To Join Reds
Owen Hargreaves will sign for Manchester United today. The England midfielder is set to be unveiled at Old Trafford after agreeing a dream £13million move. Hargreaves, 25, got his wish after revealing United manager Alex Ferguson had made him an offer he could not refuse. And the Canadian-born star pleaded with his club to agree a deal and allow him to move to Old Trafford. Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich insisted they did not want to lose Hargreaves and initially demanded £17million while United only offered £12m. But once the player signalled his intentions to leave, the two clubs thrashed out a compromise figure.

The Mirror aren't so confident of a quick deal for Hargreaves, however, and expect negotiations to continue over the coming days - with United currently set to offer £10million.

Various tabloids quote Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho's claims that Cristiano Ronaldo must be careful not to dive this season, to avoid re-opening a debate on simulation. Mourinho also backs his countryman to shrug off abuse from opposing fans.
