Manchester United have joined the battle for Palermo midfielder Javier Pastore. Pastore has been a long-term target for United boss Sir Alex Ferguson and now he is firming up his interest with Inter Milan pricing Wesley Sneijder out of a move.
La Repubblica says it is a two-way fight between United and Chelsea for the signature of the Palermo playmaker.
Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini expects a decision on Pastore this week.
