Manchester United Considering Move For Joey Barton

Manchester United is believed to be considering making a move for Newcastle United midfielder Joey Barton.

The 28-year-old has only one year left on his contract on Tyneside, and Magpies manager Alan Pardew has already confirmed that the former Manchester City man has not been offered a new deal.

Speculation has since been rife about the future of the former Eastlands man, and now The Sunday Times reports that Sir Alex Ferguson is considering making a cut-price move for the midfielder.

It is believed that a bid as low as £2 (€2.3) million would be enough to secure Barton's signature, despite Pardew having previously maintained that the midfielder could remain at St James' Park.
