Hargreaves beg Bayern Munich to let him go

Owen Hargreaves is to plea to Bayern Munich chiefs to let him join Manchester United in January.

The Times says United are aware of Hargreaves's intention to plead his case to Uli Hoeness and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Bayern's general manager and chairman respectively, at the earliest opportunity.
The events of August, when the German club stunned United with the level of their resistance to a £17 million deal, serve as a warning against over-confidence, but Sir Alex Ferguson is optimistic that this time he will get his man.
Hargreaves is now close to a comeback after recovering from a broken leg suffered in September, though will be Cup-tied from European competition should he win his move to Old Trafford.
