in reference to ATLETICO DE MADRID. The principal reason is that
the Club needs cash after years of “deviating” funds for “alternative”
uses by its owners that now put Club debt at dangerous levels. The
other reason is that the team can no longer guarantee the ambitions
of top class players as titles & European presence is poor & limited.
News from Spanish daily “AS” reports that Italian Club JUVENTUS is
interested in Argentine International midfielder MAXI RODRIGUEZ,
news backed by Italian paper “Corriere dello Sport”. This time, as
opposed to other occasions that the Italians have come knocking, a
deal could effectively take place in the upcoming “Winter Transfer
Market”. The only obstacle one can see from Spain is the reaction
from the Atletico fan base that needs all the “quality” players
they currently have available to get Atletico out if its current
classification & season hole. The fans may react violently to see how
their team resources diminish with the threat of 2ยบ Division
relegation hanging on the horizon. However, the Club may ride
the storm, the player may leave the ship & the Club deposit some
well needed funds.
Stay tuned for developments as this is only the beginning, as others
like Aguero, Forlan …etc, may soon decide to follow Maxi Rodriguez,
independently if the latter leaves now or at the end of the season.
PS. Another source places REAL MADRID midfield player GAGO as the
other option if MAXI fails for Juventus.
