United join Gunners in the race to sign £15 million star

According to the Daily Star Sunday, Manchester United have joined Arsenal in the race to sign Aston Villa star Gabriel Agbonlahor.

It was rumoured last month that Arsenal were set to make a £15 million bid for the England under-21 international.

Agbonlahor has just won the November player of the month after helping Villa keep a 100% record through the month.

Villa boss Martin O'Neill is keen to get Agbonlahor to sign a new deal and Gabby has been reported as saying he is willing to sign a new deal at the Midlands club.

It will be very interesting to see wheter or not United or Arsenal make bids for the 21-year old. I really hope Gabby stays at Villa for a couple more years and develop his game and then maybe move on to either of the two Premier League giants.
