DOUBLE DERBY FOR SNEIJDER

There is also City who on the champion of Inter: Mancini has already spoken with Moratti.

It's the duel with the cousins in Manchester United.

But before he leaves, Wes wants to beat Milan and lift his last trophy.

BEIJING AND THEN... GOODBYE

One derby that leads to another.  City-United for him.

Inter are willing to sell.  Manchester is waiting for him.

1. Derby in Beijing - The Super Cup with Milan: It is very likely that Sneijder will close his chapter at Inter after the derby against Milan for the Italian Super Cup.

2 Manchester derby - City also want him: Ferguson likes Sneijder and it is no mystery.  But now other than United, there is City who also want the Dutch.

Beijing One thing is certain: between Inter and Wesley Sneijder there is something broken and the player was the last to figure it out.  The symptoms of illness did not happen yesterday when the arrival in China, Wesley was the most celebrated player among the fans, or on Sunday when he found himself in front of his closest friends, De Jong, in a friendly with Manchester City.  The courtship of Manchester's Arabs is more discreet than that of United but they are working in depth mainly because Sneijder has realized that he is not desired, loved, and protected like in the season when he was very happy with Mourinho.  With the departure of the Portuguese and the arrivals of Benitez and Leonardo, something has remained unsolved then came Gasperini with his tactical requirements.  The impression is that Inter have decided to sell Sneijder to make good money for its budget and for the new project in the midfield.  This is where the story is intertwined not only with Manchester United but also with City of Roberto Mancini.

Talks Saturday evening, in a private room in the Four Seasons hotel in Dublin where Inter and City spent a few days with their training camp, Massimo and Mancini spoke not only about Tevez, Eto'o, and Maicon but also Sneijder.  This entry from the city rival in City can be viewed as even more concrete than Manchester United.  Mancini has decided to push for the move because he understood that the deal for Nasri is likely to be a long negotiation and City need a new trequartista as soon as possible because Chelsea could get on the trail of the Dutch as a third wheel.  The talk on Sunday has confirmed one thing to Mancini - who really trusts Wes greatly - the one thing that he wants to hear: Inter are more than willing to sell Sneijder who is recovering from a difficult year.  Not only that, we have seen more than one occasions some dissatisfaction even at the start of the season where he viewed his new role as a pure midfielder very challenging.  City have a better chance of getting Sneijder compared to United because they can satisfy both Inter (who hope to make at least 35 million euros) and the player.  Not to mention that the sale of Sneijder could make it sufficient for Inter to think about the signing of Tevez.  But this, as explained by Moratti to Mancini Sunday, in the case must satisfied the conditions at Inter because City can not and do not keep the Argentinian.

Farewell step? Sneijder is the center of attention of Inter when the team landed in China.  He was the most sought after by the fans so much so that his jersey is the most popular for the fans in Beijing.  The Chinese media also wanted to hear from him.  "It is an honor for me to be in China.  This is my first time I come to this country.  We are here to play a very important game.  I am convinced that Inter can do well and I will do everything to make this happen.  We're here to win."  But the ghost of Wesley (the key man of Nike which on Firday will be "silenced" during the presentation of the away shirt because the player is in a delicate position) hovers even in the press conferences of Gasperini, Ranocchia and Alvarez.  "No problem for Sneijder," said the coach to the Chinese.  "Wes is here with us.  He is training with us and on Sunday he will play for us."  Yes, but it could really be the last at Inter.  Even yesterday, Sneijder demonstrated his usual grit that he does not want to lose especially to Milan in the game for the Super Cup.  His Inter story began with a derby as one of the leaders.  And if he really is leaving, that is what Sneijder wants to imagine his goodbye: as a leader with the cup in his hands.
