Manchester United's American owner, The Glazers will reportedly give big money to United's incoming manager David Moyes in a bid to make him lure either Real Madrid forward Cristiano Ronaldo or Tottenham Hotspurs winger Gareth Bale.United will splash their cash to lure either of the two players and set a new world transfer record, The Sun reports.

Moyes hopes to convince Ronaldo into returning to the Old Trafford after the Portuguese star denied claims that he will renew his contract with Real and play with only them until retirement.

However, if Ronaldo plans to stay on at the Bernabeu, Moyes will persuade Bale with a record 85 million pounds.

According to the report, although Spurs is adamant on retaining the Double Player of the Year but a world record transfer fee might persuade them enough to let go off their star.

The Glazers are set to continue United's legacy even after manager Alex Ferguson's retirement with world transfer records and high-ranking footballers, the report added.
