SIR ALEX FERGUSON is eyeing Argentine sensation Javier Saviola.
He believes the 25-year-old striker could be the final piece in his Manchester United jigsaw — and at a bargain price.
Saviola is set to quit Barcelona this month on a Bosman free, paving the way for a possible move to Old Trafford for less than £7 million. Any deal on offer would be for around three years and worth about £50,000 a week.
Arsenal, Liverpool, Bolton, Valencia and Real Madrid are also interested but United are Saviola's preferred choice.
Saviola, who has had three years at the Nou Camp, is not impressed by a new deal offer from the Spanish giants at much reduced money.
He said: "I consider my career at Barcelona is finished. There are several offers on the table."
