Real Madrid are reporting that they have reached an agreement for the transfer of Ruud Van Nistelrooy with Manchester United and that he will undergo a medical on Friday morning before being formally presented on Friday evening at 17:00 GMT at the Bernebeu. However, Manchester United have made a statement, saying the deal is not agreed but that they have given permission for Ruud to have the medical while other details are still to be finalised. Nevertheless, it is looking very close now and hopefully it will go through as expected, because RVN must be sick of the way this has all dragged out and personally we would love to see him at RM!
