WESLEY SNEIJDER will not sign

The fact is, it will be impossible for us to sign him for many reasons. Number 1 is he will fetch plus 35m and I doubt we would spend that amount of money unless we sell some players. The most important reasons is that with Chelsea in search of a new midfielder and Citys spending powers, they would unlikely let us buy him and would simply outbid us. I really doubt he would rather join us than lets say a Chelsea because we are similar competitively but Chelsea would be able to give him a better deal. Thirdly he is 26 and approaching 27 and with our policy of under 27 year olds, the likely hood of signing him is impossible because he has not really got a resale value of lets say a 21 year old talented player.
