Man Utd chief scout saw Villa score twice for Valencia
Valencia ace David Villa remains a big-money target for Manchester United.
The Mirror says United chief Sir Alex Ferguson sent brother Martin - his top European scout - to watch Villa net twice against Getafe as the Old Trafford club updated their dossier on the superstar.
Ferguson wanted Villa last summer but his £45 million price tag put the deal off. However Dimitar Berbatov's indifferent form has left the door open for a top-flight striker to join for next season.
Villa could be open to offers if Valencia fail to reach the Champions League and decide to cash in. For all of their troubles the decision to keep him has paid off this season.

Craig, U Insane. United is never in the debt, the Glazers yes. United is reaping Profits year after year. Ask Platini. The owner may change but United will be stronger than ever and ever. Arsene Wenger admitted UNITED is too Big.
Don't u remember what Platini have said. Chelshit is in danger of missing C/league coz of the balance sheet. U can't even pays ur players salaries. Everything is paid up by Abrahamovic pocket which is getting thinner. Once he decided to QUIT, the BRIDGE will Collapse.
