However, nothing can be done until Seba sorts out his future with United.
His representative, Fernando Hidalgo, said "I think the player wants one more year at United. He wants to repay the club for the faith they have shown in investing in him, and he wants to prove to Sir Alex [Ferguson] that he is still a good player.
"He will talk to Ferguson because he wouldn't want to leave if the manager still sees a future for him at the club. I think the talks planned between Veron and Ferguson will be critical as to whether Chelsea's interest in the player comes to anything."
So now we just have to play the waiting game. But there's other transfer news to keep you occupied in the mean time...
