Chronicle: United's recruitment team of Dennis Wise and Tony Jimenez have been on the trail of Deportivo La Coruna's Fabricio Coloccini for some time now, and he was linked with a move to St James's Park in Glenn Roeder's time as manager.
But the Chronicle can reveal that United are also looking at Coloccini's fellow Argentinian Nicolas Burdisso, who is now with Inter Milan.
Two Central Defenders Heading To St James' Park?
Both Burdisso and Coloccini are products of Argentina's most famous club - Boca Juniors.
