Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has £100 MILLION to spend in the transfer market. The Sun says Fergie's windfall came after he told United's board he needed to spend big.
The huge war chest will surprise many of the fans who have opposed the Glazers' regime since they bought the club in 2005 - and lumbered it with £705m of debt.
United boss Ferguson has always defended the Yanks, despite the fans' 'Green and Gold' campaign to oust them.
Fergie needs some big players to replace Old Trafford legends Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs, who are both probably in their last season.
And he also wants another top-class striker with only Wayne Rooney and - occasionally - Dimitar Berbatov carrying the goalscoring burden.
