Owen only has eyes for United
-
Owen Hargreaves claims Manchester United are the only club for him after the Old Trafford club's covetous pursuit of the Bayern Munich midfielder.
United first moved for Hargreaves in the wake of the player's impressive performances for England at last summer's World Cup but their enquiries were rebuffed by Bayern.
Despite receiving little encouragement and a lot of hostility from the German giants, Sir Alex Ferguson has never hid his admiration for Hargreaves - a stance that has not gone unnoticed by the player.
Reports claim United will again test Bayern's resolve in the summer and Hargreaves, who has been laid low for much of this season with a broken leg, admits a move to the Premiership would be a dream.
"United are the only team I want to join," he told the News of the World.
"They have invested so much time and energy in me.
"It's very rare to see a transfer drag on like this.
"A football team is a puzzle with different pieces and and you need to find the right pieces and the right mix.
"United believe I am the final piece in their puzzle and that is an honour for me."
Hargreaves admits his open desire to play for Manchester United has put him at loggerheads with Bayern.
"It has been a difficult political situation. My position is very different and I couldn't compare it to any other player," said Hargreaves.
"It is not as though I am chasing money in Greece or Spain. There is a reason for me wanting to join United - I play for England and my family are from the north west.
"I love Bayern Munich. I have grown up in Germany but I'm the only England player never to have played in England and Manchester United want to take me home." -
