The Dyer story appeared as an exclusive in the Daily Star, which claims that Sir Alex Ferguson will use the money from the sales of David Beckham and Juan Sebastian Veron to fund a £20million bid.
Given the source of the report I’m more concerned about their front page exclusive, which claims England is in the grip of a lager shortage.
Meanwhile The Sun claim that West Ham are resigned to having to sell Jermain Defoe and are planning to spend some of the cash on Acuna.
If that does happen I’m looking forward to hearing the reaction from Hammers fans, who are already irate about the sale of Joe Cole and Glen Johnson.
