Manchester United enter Theo Walcott race?

Manchester United have been linked with a move for Arsenal contract rebel Theo Walcott.

The 23-year-old's current deal expires in the summer, but he continues to stall on negotiations with the Gunners.

According to the Daily Mail, the North London outfit have offered Walcott a five-year deal that would see him earn £75,000 per week, but he is holding out for £100,000.

It has been reported that the England international could be available for around £8m in January.

Liverpool, Manchester City and Chelsea are also believed to be interested, but the Red Devils are said to be his preferred choice.

Walcott, who has 30 caps for his country, joined Arsenal for £12m from Southampton in 2006.
