Owen agrees to join United
Soccer Betting Lines
07/03/2009 -
Manchester, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Michael Owen is determined to repay the
faith Sir Alex Ferguson has shown in him after penning a two-year contract
with Manchester United.
The 29-year-old moves to Old Trafford on a free transfer after four injury-
plagued years with Newcastle.
Owen told United's official website: "I'd just begun to talk to other clubs
when, out of the blue, Sir Alex phoned me on Wednesday afternoon and invited
me to have breakfast with him the next morning, during which he told me that
he wanted to sign me. I agreed without a moment's thought.
"This is a fantastic opportunity for me and I intend to seize it with both
hands.
"I am now looking forward to being a Manchester United player and I'm
fortunate that I already know so many of the players here. I missed preseason
last year and am pleased that I'll be starting at Carrington from day one."
Owen, who was earning a reported $165,000-a-week at Newcastle, has made just
76 appearances and scored 30 goals during his four seasons with the Magpies
following his $26 million arrival from Real Madrid.
