Galatasaray star Sneijder wants Premier League move

Galatasaray midfielder Wesley Sneijder wants a Premier League move. The Sunday Mirror says the 29 year-old Holland international has been in magnificent form for Galatasaray but has never hidden his ambitions of moving to England.

Manchester United took a close look at the Dutch star three years ago when they were looking for a long-term replacement for Paul Scholes as their prime creative force.

United could not agree a fee with Inter Milan and Sneijder eventually moved to Turkey last January after his contract wrangle with the Italian club. With his contract running down Sneijder's transfer was a bargain £6m.
