BB Round-up – Fergie confident with £20m bid, Viera to snub Arsenal, Aston Villa set to sign up Shay Given

New naming rights for Eastlands could help Manchester City significantly in their attempts to comply with UEFA’s fair play ruling. The deal would give the club a cash injection in the region of £15-20m per season therefore making a sizeable contribution to their annual revenues.

In the papers this morning there have been a mixed bag of stories that include Redknapp conceding Modric is confused about his future; Stewart Downing set to demand a transfer from Aston Villa, while Manchester United are confident that £20m will land Samir Nasri.
