MANCHESTER CITY EYES SEVILLA FC JESUS NAVAS

Manchester City has scouts at Seville checking out players. Sevilla FC midfielder Kondogbia was the player most thought was being closely examined, but Spanish Sports paper "Marca" reveals that the true objective is Spanish Soccer International Jesus Navas.

Sevilla FC has in mind selling a few players next season to get in some needed cash, they include Alvaro Negredo, Fazio & Medal. Now they may have to consider a fourth in Jesus Navas if Manchester City comes with the "big money". The contract release clause for Jesus Navas is 35M€, a figure to "juicy" not to consider. The only possible obstacle for Manchester City is the no from the player who may not wish to leave Spain. The player has a history of "anxiety attacks" when he is far from home, something that he has worked to overcome for the Spanish Football National Team. Here the closeness of Spanish team-mates ease the situation but being away in a "foreign country" & culture may make the disciplined efforts not workable in managing his "condition".

Said this the player has matured & with an attractive economic compensation may work "miracles". Stay tuned on this interesting front in coming months.

MANCHESTER CITY PUTS SEVILLA FC JESUS NAVAS ON LIST FOR NEXT SEASON

Every year around this time Sevilla FC & Spanish International winger JESUS NAVAS gets his name on the habitual signing rumour mill. If it not Real Madrid, its FC Barcelona or Atletico de Madrid, its natural as the player is a quick, skilful & an exceptional winger.

This time around from England & from the newspaper "Daily Mail" come the news that Manchester City has the Spanish Football Player on their list of possible reinforcements for next season. Ex-FC Barcelona Football Director ( & ex player ) Txiki Beriguistian, is now Top Executive at Manchester City & knows well La Liga & Jesus Navas.

Navas has contract with Sevilla FC & will thus make the English Club either negotiate or have to pay the players contract release clause. Either option would mean a high payment & offer if the idea is to have success. Sevilla President Del Nido has a local reputation as being a "fierce" negotiator & will no doubt squeeze Man City to the maximum.

Stay tuned,  as this is currently only rumour & there is still plenty of months left for the end of the season.

ARSENAL FC EYES SEVILLA FC JESUS NAVAS AGAIN?

Spanish Football media has picked up a news "flash" from English radio programe "Talk Sport" which although maybe just healthy speculation has made ripples down towards the Iberian peninsula.

The talk is that English Premier League Club ARSENAL FC has once again put its sights on SEVILLA FC winger & Spanish International JESUS NAVAS. I mention again because Arsenal has had Navas on their agenda for some seasons & this time could be the definite attempt. 

Spanish Football & Sevilla FC player Jesus Navas 

Jesus Navas renewed contract with Sevilla FC until 2015 but negotiated a contract release clause reduction to 35M€. This makes the player more financial accessible & Arsenal could negotiate for the player for around 30M€. Said this, 30M€ would be the highest amount that Arsenal would be willing to pay for a player in its History. 

So, before we all go wild ( especially Arsenal fans) , the news is speculation - rumour & we will be following this angle which will be clear at the end of the season Tweet

REAL MADRID: SEVILLA FC WINGER JESUS NAVAS NEXT PLAYER TRAVELLING TO MADRID?

Spanish Football Magazine “Don Balon” has published a “scoop”
in their current online edition. Apart from announcing that they
too believe that REAL MADRID Coach Manuel Pellegrini will not
continue next season, they advance that Real President Florentino
Perez wishes his team to play more via the wings & has SEVILLA
FC & 25 year old Spanish International player JESUS NAVAS in
mind as an option for next season.

The idea seems clear; if Bayern Munich gets tough with FRANCK
RIBERY, goes over board with their French wingers transfer price
&/or Ribery himself gets too cocky in the negotiations, Real
Madrid will change strategy & begin negotiations with Sevilla FC
were they share a good business relationship at Club level & a
great personal feeling at Presidential level.

The other player in mind & not mentioned by “Don Balon” is
Valencia CF player David Silva. Here however there maybe a
tussle with FC Barcelona who see the Spanish International as
the natural replacement for Thierry Henry.

Stay tuned on developments. Tweet
