FC BARCELONA LAUNCHES A 65M€ FOR BENZEMA

The news from France & the source “Aujourd´hui Sport”, which has been
picked up here by all Spanish sports press, is that FC BARCELONA
recently made a 65M€ offer for OLYMPIQUE DE LYON French
International forward BENZEMA. The news adds that the offer was
rejected by O.Lyon President Jean-Michel Aules who considered it well
short of his estimated true value of 100M€.

The French player has two other giants interested & may well explain the
Clubs wish to hear more offers. MANCHESTER UNITED has made
Benzema a priority for next season & wish to sell Tevez to finance the
operation. Also REAL MADRID has expressed its interest & in this case
the player has expressed his desire to play at Real.

Interesting summer ahead in the transfer market as this promises to be
another long winded story awaiting an unknown conclusion, at this
moment.
