executive Garry Cook informs that the English Premier League Club
has withdrawn its interest in FC BARCELONA forward SAMUEL
ETO´O. The English Club gave Eto´o an ultimatum to make a
decision as Man City could not wait any longer. The official
communication expresses that Eto´o is a great player but the
circumstances surrounding his Club & the player have complicated
the process to come to a mutual agreement. The Club now changes
course & follows other objectives in its plan to build a strong team
for next seasons Premier League.
This now lowers the options of Clubs for Samuel Eto´o to go to, if
it is true that he has communicated to FC Barcelona his intention to
leave as published by Barcelona based daily´s “Sport” & “Mundo
Deportivo” this morning in their print editions (see SFS post below).
The two rumoured Clubs left are AC MILAN who has as their Nº1
choice Luis Fabiano of Sevilla FC & MANCHESTER UNITED which
hasn’t as yet put in a formal offer according to media sources.
Bad karma, & a potentially explosive situation on the horizon if not
solved, as the discarded option of staying to finish his year left
of contract returns as a viable alternative. This last choice would
torpedo Barça ambitions of entering in a significant manner into
the transfer market (eg Villa, Ribery...etc) because they have a
limited budget & depend heavily on the money that can be
generated from a Eto´o transfer to be able to invest.
Let’s follow & see how things evolve in the coming days in this
"strange" & awkward situation that is getting the Club onto the
headlines for all the wrong reasons. Stay tuned!
