Breaking: £5m bid by Sunderland for Campbell accepted by ManUtd

The internet reports that Manchester United has accepted a £5m bid from Sunderland for U21 international Frazier Campbell. Campbell has not spend much of time at ManUtd during his professional career, mainly being out on loan ((Antwerp FC, Hull FC and Spurs)), but struggled last season to get time on the pitch at the Spurs, both under Harry Redknapp and Juande Ramos. The boy clearly is talented and might become a fixture in the Premier League but sadly he doesn’t seem to have the finishing touch we need as a European Top Squad.

Campbell also had generated interested from Hull FC and now seems on his way out. Sunderland manager Steve Bruce expects the deal to be finalized before the end of the weekend. Considered how much Campbell has struggled to get time on the pitch this is an awesome financial deal for ManUtd. If he leaves we wish Campbell all the best and much success in the rest of his career. He will link up with Richardson at Sunderland who left OT in 2007 for £5.5m. We have to love Sunderland for their great business spirit!
