Manchester United are now turning their attention to the Inter Milan midfielder.

Guarin, a versatile midfielder, can play across the midfield and will be allowed to leave the San Siro as Inter chase their own targets.

Despite playing only a limited role in Colombia's Soccer World Cup campaign, Guarin is considered one of the best midfielders in Italy's Serie A.

After three season with Inter, Guarin could be headed for the English Premiership.
