SPANISH FOOTBALL SIGNING RUMOURS & TALES

After cruising through the Spanish Sports press this morning,
I thought I´ll give you a few signing rumours news that have
popped up,specially in AS who have been active with the
this type of stories.
(as)

Chelsea & Dutch International winger/striker ROBBEN has
made it known to REAL MADRID,via his agent/father,that
his son dearly would love to play for them. He has also
expressed their desire not to have to play in Italy where
they have offers from Inter & AC Milan.
Robben is unhappy at Chelsea with Mourinho´s set up were
he is not participating as much, due to the competition of
Duffy & Cole, who also operate in his position.
Obviously Chelsea will have a say in all this, one thing is the
players wishes, another is his contract. Smells like his agent
is sounding the market, or sending a message to the English
Club.

Back at REAL MADRID, they could well lose DIARRA if they
are not quick. Diarra´s rep. has given Real 3 days to show
their real interest, if not, he will fly to Manchester on Manday
& shut the deal with UNITED.
Real Madrid are currently unable to take decisions due to
the fact that they have called elections to vote for a new
President on the 2nd of July. Therefore, one cannot know who
is the person that they need to talk to or negociate.
This is "terrible" for the club, as it´s competitors will do
everything to take advantage of this situation.

French team Olympique de Lyon have put their eyes on Spanish
& Betis winger JOAQUIN. They are looking for a winger & feel that
the Spaniard will fit nicely into their National & European plans.
It´s no secret that Joaquin desires to play in Spain with either
Real Madrid or Barcelona, but if the price is right, who knows.

Lastly, Inter de Milan is interested in Portuguese & Deportivo
defender ANDRADE.The figure been spoken is of around
12,000,000€.
Andrade ( pictured) is currently injuried & is recovering from
a serious knee operation.
Before his injury, Andrade was on the verge of going to play
in English Football as he had serious offers from Liverpool &
Manchester Utd.
