Too many eggs in one basket
United was in dispute with Heinze because the club had given him written permission to seek a new club as long as the fee was 6.8m pounds. The Premiership arbitration panel ruled that the document “envisages only an international transfer".
With the transfer window closing down in 10 days time, Heinze better move fast because he is certain to spend a season in the reserves otherwise.
Manchester United’s Alex Ferguson and David Gill travelled to the hearing to present their case. Their basic argument was that they were under no obligation to sell Heinze to a rival. All along I thought Heinze would lose the argument. It’s up to the club to accept or reject an offer. Even with a written statement that they would allow a transfer, it’s still up to the club to decide where.
If Heinze would have won, it would be the first move since between the clubs since 1962.
Heinze can appeal, but should cut his losses and get out of town fast.

Well, this isn't going to help him getting back onto the NT. September friendly coming up...
I don't know if we still need Heinze on the NT all together. We have some good CB now, and certainly could use more offensive fullbacks on both ends.
No Heinze is at Real Madrid. In the market of soccer what is truth today may be a lie tomorrow.
