Man United sign Angolan striker Manucho / myLot

January 30, 2008 11:23am CST

Manucho should join Man United in the summer from Petro Athletico as long as he gets his work permit. This is following a succesful 3 week trial with the club. He's looking fairly handy in the African Nations Cup at the moment. Fergie has a bad record with Africans so far (Fortune and Djemba Djemba).. although I was always a fan of Fortune's to be honest. Manucho could prove to be a top signing in my opinion. It is a long time since Fergie bagged a bargain signing in the mould of Solskjaer, Schmichael and Cantona!

I haven't seen him play so far, but he's the man that scored to beat Senegal. If Angola qualify to the quarter finals, I'll sure keep my eyes on him.

Check out the goal on youtube against South Africa from Angola. The diving header was very reminiscent of goals by Yorke in the Treble winning year.
