Man Utd regarded as favourites for Valencia ace Villa
Manchester United are a step closer to landing Valencia striker David Villa.
The Daily Mail says Valencia will not be able to resist Manchester United's attempts to sign Villa, according to reports in Spain.
The La Liga club will have to listen to offers for prized trio Villa, David Silva and Juan Mata in a bid to reduce debts of about £450million.
Villa tops Sir Alex Ferguson's hit list, with United hoping £35m will be enough to lure the 27-year-old to Old Trafford.
United, Chelsea and Manchester City were all interested in Villa in the summer, only to be told he would only consider leaving Valencia for Barcelona or Real Madrid.
Spain's big two have since shelled out on alternative centre forwards and Villa no longer rules out playing outside of his homeland.

La Liga what a fool. Have u ever watched an EPL game and then watched a La Liga game. La Liga games are so slow and only good when the big guns play. In the EPL there is always a good game. very rarely you see a 6 plus scoreline. La Liga is no where near the EPL simply Because two teams have the best players. Dont condemn a league if you dont watch it fool
I think man utd should ditch david villa..and have more faith in their current squad including macheda and welbeck and the younger players... we have let some very good youngsters slip thru like gerrard pique..rossi just to name a few....mayb the money can be spent on a gd centreback and a central midfielder..
Beno, Can YOU PLEASE TELL ME WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME ARSENAL WON A TROPHY??THEREFORE WHY WOULD HE WANT TO COME TO THEM.A PLAYER WANTS MEDALS AND AT ARSENAL YOU DONT GET NONE.UNITED PLAY GOOD FOOTBALL NOT FAR OFF FROM ARSENALS.UNITED KNOW HOW TO WIN "UGLY" ARSENAL DONT.
