In the meantime, Brown acknowledged that he would love to have the player at United as he will only improve the team.

While speaking to MUTV, Brown said ‘Talent and excitement. We need someone exactly like that at the club. We’ve had them over the years and I’m sure if we were to sign him he would bring that excitement back to the club. It would be good for the team as well.’

‘We’ve had players like that in the past, like with Cristiano Ronaldo. They’re the type of player who draw three or four defenders out and make the game a lot easier for the other players. If we could do it, it would be a brilliant signing.’ He added.

Wes Brown who himself spent fifteen years at Manchester United was an integral part of Sir Alex Ferguson’s all-conquering side. The 40-year-old has won five Premier League and played a crucial role in the Red Devil’s 1999 treble success.
