The cynic in me suspects that those quotes from Sneijder are made up by some rag to sell papers. It would be completely counterintuitive for a distinctly visible player like him to publicly proclaim his attraction to United while still playing for Inter.
WESLEY SNEIJDER: 'I'D ONLY PLAY IN ENGLAND FOR MANCHESTER UNITED'
WESLEY SNEIJDER last night revealed: I would love to play in England but ONLY for Manchester United.
The classy Dutch midfielder, who was linked with a £30m summer move from Inter Milan to Old Trafford, is a huge United fan.
Sneijder, 26, said: ‘‘If somebody asks me if I will ever play for Manchester United, it’s impossible for me to say no. How can you say that if the chance came you would not play for one of the biggest clubs in the world.
‘‘I don’t think there is any player in the world who could publically rule out ever playing for Manchester United, and if they did I would doubt they were telling the truth.
‘‘I have played with Real Madrid who many consider the best club in the world, and now I have played with this Inter Milan team who made history last season by winning the treble.
‘‘I am still an Inter Milan player and very much committed to the club, but I can’t say what will happen in the future and if Manchester United approached me in the summer of course I would listen.’’
Sneijder has also been linked with a move back to former club Real Madrid to work with his former inter coach Jose Mourinho.
But the Dutch ace wants to come to England.
Sneidjer added: ‘‘The Premier League, in terms of top clubs, is the strongest in the world, and it would be nice to finish my career saying I have played at the very top in Spain, Italy, and England.
‘‘There is not many who can say they have done that, and if that does happen for me I would only want it to be with Manchester United.‘‘

Player looking for a big new contract extension links himself with a move to United?
I think we've been here before, such as Casillas a couple of years ago.
Wouldn't you be?Quite a change in tone from Sneijder, considering his stance during the summer. Tired of Benitez already?
Can't see Sneijder being happy under Rafa.
If he's rejected an extended offer from Inter and these quotes are true, what the feck are we waiting for?
Ive said it before, Fergie could have had him or Robben or both if he wanted to when Madrid were after Ronnie and only Fergie knows why he didnt take them.

Sneijder and De Gea. That's us sorted for next summer then.

Can't imagine SAF will hand the keeper duty to a 20 year old.
can't be surprised by that though. People can argue we should have got Robben and Sneijder and 30/40 million maybe for Ronaldo. Why would we suddenly think Sneijder for 30+ millions a great idea?
Essien was a United fan, lets tap him up
