Bommel booster for Owen
OWEN HARGREAVES is ‘close to leaving Bayern Munich’ according to Mark van Bommel — the man set to replace him at the German club.
Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson had been told to forget about a £17million transfer before Thursday’s deadline.
But the German champs thrashed out an £8m move for Barcelona star midfielder Van Bommel, 29, over the weekend.
And the Dutchman claims Bayern want him to fill the gaps left by Michael Ballack and Hargreaves — who was left on the bench for the 0-0 draw with Nuremberg.
Van Bommel said: “I have left Barcelona because there were not enough guarantees that I would play every week.
“But at Bayern Munich the chances of playing are so much bigger — they told me that with Ballack gone and Hargreaves close to leaving the club.”
Bayern are also set to welcome back German midfielder Sebastian Deisler from a long-term knee injury.
