Club: Barcelona Is it time for United to go back in for a surprise move for Barcelona's Spanish centre-half? The player used to be at Old Trafford when it didn't work out particularly well for him, but he has come on leaps and bounds in Spain since then, and is one of the stars of the defence at the Nou Camp. Pique has been linked with a return to United before (last year by the Metro and the Guardian) and though it might look like a shock on paper, it might be ideal for both parties, if Pique decides he wants to return to his unfinished business with United. He is tall, tough and athletic, and his experience with Barcelona will make him a strong prospect for the number one defensive slot at United if they choose to fork out the necessary money to bring him back from Spain.
