Premiership: Paolo could still go to United - Roeder

West Ham manager Glenn Roeder today accepted Paolo di Canio could carry out his threat to return home to Italy when his contract expires at the end of next season - but has still not totally discounted the prospect of the volatile striker ending up with Manchester United.

Di Canio, currently in Rome undergoing dental treatment while he serves a three-match suspension, was today reported to have stated he will quit the Premiership once he has fulfilled his contractual obligations to West Ham.
