Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has confirmed he considered signing Wolfsburg striker Edin Dzeko in the summer.
Ahead of tonight's Champions League meeting, Ferguson revealed: "Their two strikers scored 71 goals between them last season. That is an incredible total.
"They are both big, powerful lads and we did look at Dzeko.
"He is a very clever player who takes up good positions.
"Wolfsburg haven't started the season that well but they have got to grips with their game and they are getting winning results."
