Man Utd transfer 'expected to accelerate' Samba exit amid 'advanced negotiations'

The 28-year-old has just 12 months remaining on his current contract at the City Ground, and talks over a new deal have stalled. The Reds insist that an extension has been offered with the idea that he would stay, but Samba is equally saif to be ready to return to the continent.
