United target Japan star

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has been linked with a summer swoop for Borussia Dortmund playmaker Shinji Kagawa.

The Japan international is out of contract at the end of next season and it is thought the Bundesliga side will listen to offers of around £12million for Kagawa. Dortmund are keen to keep hold of the 23-year-old but it appears as if Kagawa could be on the move in the summer, although United could face a battle for the midfielder's services as Chelsea, Arsenal and a number of clubs from across Europe have been credited with an interest.
