Saha has been in fine form for Fulham this season
|
Manchester United are set to make a £7m move for Fulham's French striker Louis Saha in the January transfer window, according to reports.
Saha is believed to be United boss Sir Alex Ferguson's top target to partner Ruud van Nistelrooy at Old Trafford.
The 25-year-old, who has scored 10 goals this season to help Fulham climb to fourth in the Premiership table, insists he wants to stay at Fulham.
But Ferguson is said to be confident that he can thrash out a deal.
Fulham boss Chris Coleman said last month that he would not consider selling Saha at any price, and that he wanted him sign a new deal.
But Saha told the Daily Express newspaper: "I have not heard anything about a new contract.
"There are a lot of players who are hoping to sign new deals, but nothing has been said to me so far.
"I am happy at Fulham and I want to stay. I am enjoying things right now."
Fulham recently persuaded Luis Boa Morte, Steed Malbranque and Sylvain Legwinski to sign new contracts.
