Come and get me Fergie teases Raul

Spanish international striker Raul threw down the gauntlet to Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson on Saturday when he said the only other club he would play for apart from Real Madrid would be the Premiership giants.

The 25-year-old has scored eight times this term for the European champions and admitted to being a huge fan of Ferguson.

"He's a great man and a real institution as a coach," Raul told the BBC.

"I would love to have him as my coach but I am a Real Madrid player."

"However if there was ever a point I would leave Real Madrid, the only team I would consider would be Manchester United," he added.

For the moment, though, Raul has dreams of playing at Old Trafford but for Real Madrid.

"I would love to play at Old Trafford in this season's Champions League final against Manchester United!" he said.
