Gabriel was told, with no ambiguity, that historically Manchester United do not sell players to Liverpool, and vice versa.Sir Alex Ferguson was not about to become the first United manager to sanction a transfer between the north west rivals for 43 years, as he revealed in his autobiography.Thats what the Argentine was pushing for in 2007. He had a mercenary streak, according to Fergie and when efforts to join Liverpool were blocked, the defender attempted to make a legal issue out of it.Fergie was not prepared to sell Heinze to Man United’s rivals, Liverpool3

Joining from Paris Saint-Germain in 2004, signs of trouble first surfaced a year later. He had a winner’s mindset, but was as hard-nosed as they came. “Ruthless, would kick his own granny,” Fergie wrote.After one year he wanted to leave. We were playing Villarreal (in the Champions League in September 2005) when his agent came to see me, he added.Things were never the same after that. The following day he injured his cruciate, adding that when he returned to action during the 2006/07 season he wanted new terms on a new contract.”

That’s the reason why they don’t want him to leave for us.“We made an offer which they rejected. The lawyers are now working on it and so we have to wait.” Heinzes people even tried shady tactics to circumvent Uniteds position, as former Crystal Palace chairman Simon Jordan explained in his book, Be Careful What you Wish For. Phil Alexander, the clubs CEO, received an approach from someone called James Green who claimed to represent a South American agency called Soccer SA.The gist of the conversation was that this agent was that this agent wanted Crystal Palace to buy Gabriel Heinze from Manchester United and then immediately sell him on to Liverpool, he wrote, adding Palace would be paid 1m in commission a bung in Jordans eyes.Rafa Benitez was keen to sign Heinze for Liverpool in 20073

He instructed Alexander to inform United chief executive David Gill, with the information being used as evidence at the tribunal, which sided with United.Heinze was later sold to Real Madrid and speaking in 2011, revealed his regret at the way his career in Manchester ended, citing his and Fergusons strong personalities.“I spent three years in Manchester and had some great moments and I regret it [leaving the club] a lot. There are a lot of things I regret from the last months but I am a strong personality, Sir Alex is a strong personality. I took the decision and, looking back, I regret it because it meant leaving a great club and their supporters. I was aware of the rivalry [with Liverpool], I knew the risk of going from Manchester to Liverpool and what it means. I hope it doesn’t tarnish the way they [the supporters] see me and they will remember the three years I had in the team.”
