Ferguson rules out United move for Campbell

MANCHESTER, Dec 11 (AFP): Sir Alex Ferguson has dismissed suggestions he will move for Sol Campbell in the transfer window and insists Manchester United are not interested in the former England defender.
Campbell has been linked with a free transfer to Old Trafford next month to ease the Premier League champions' current defensive crisis.
United have just one recognised centre back fit for the visit of Aston Villa Saturday as they look to secure the win that could see them overhaul Chelsea at the top of the table.
Campbell is available to join another club again after resolving his registration dispute with Notts County, the League Two club he walked out on after making just one appearance earlier this season.
But despite being without a host of defenders, including Jonny Evans, Gary Neville, John O'Shea and Rio Ferdinand, Ferguson insists Campbell is not someone he wants to sign.
Although he claims to have money to spend, Ferguson has no intention of bringing any new players to Old Trafford next month.
