If you don't care for Italian football, scroll far, far down, because there's a lot of Serie
A-based news forthcoming. AC Milan will be saying goodbye to eight players in June, according to
Gazzetta dello Sport. A couple of names we already know will be on their way out, including Paolo
Maldini, who'll [.
Today's top transfer rumors: For a long, long time Wagner Love has been tipped to join the English
Premier League and under the current circumstances it appears that he shall be another expensive
import to the English game as soon as January next year. The 23-year Brazilian striker currently
plays for Russian powerhouse CSKA Moscow [.
Today's top transfer rumours: The biggest transfer gossip in the English press is the alleged
interest of Arsenal in AC Milan youngster Yoann Gourcuff. The Daily Telegraph has reported that
Arsene Wenger is keen on having a second bite at the French cherry after missing out on the French
starlet in 2006 when he moved to [.
Today's top transfer rumours revolve around Tottenham, Liverpool, Chelsea, Milan, Inter, Real
Madrid and the usual talent-spotting by Manchester United and Arsenal. One trick of the feet and
the entire situation alters apparently. Even on Saturday, Ronaldinho's future at FC Barcelona was
lurking in the shadows of doubt as his brother-cum-agent Roberto de Assis was constantly [.
Football clubs are gearing up for more action in the transfer market as the season draws nearer to
the opening of the January window. Chelsea are thinking about offering Paulo Ferreira plus money
for Valencia player Miguel. Both players play for Portugal and Ferreira has hardly featured for
Chelsea this season.
Brought to you by the Barcelona blog. The team responded to the criticism by turning in a fine
display to beat a lucklustre Inter Milan 5-0 in tonight's Joan Gamper. Before the game the club
remembered Antonio Puerta by having the team run out all wearing the number 16 Sevilla shirt that
he wore. There was [...]
Today's transfer rumours: Barcelona According to The Sun, Barcelona's Eidur Gudjohnsen could be set
for a return to the Premier League with West Ham, Portsmouth and Manchester City all interested in
signing the former Chelsea striker. Why he would want to leave the comfort of Barcelona's bench and
the high wages is beyond me though. Arsenal Arsenal are watching [.
Soccerlens reader shahryarnoon has compiled a comprehensive list of transfer rumours for the month
of October 2007. Have a look, and add your rumours to the comments section if you think he's missed
something. Manchester United The most surprising name linked to Manchester United is that of
Brazilian superstar Ronaldinho, whose situation at Barcelona is being [.
Ronaldinho apparently enjoys the night life, perhaps a bit too much.
Talk about a great honor!
Barcelona star Samuel Eto'o was unveiled as the face of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa on
Friday.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter on Friday unveiled the poster for the first tournament to be staged in
Africa.
An image of the Cameroonian striker about to head a football, his face and neck superimposed on a
map of Africa, will form the center piece of the publicity campaign for the tournament.
Following is a comprehensive list of transfer rumours which were published in British tabloids
during the month of November 2007: Manchester United According to various British newspapers,
Manchester United have stolen a march on Real Madrid in the £10m race to sign midfielder Miguel
Veloso. Moreover according to The People, Manchester United are being sounded out about a [.
Things are quickly turning from bad to worse to full-on intolerable with Barcelona and Ronaldinho,
the rumors of him leaving the club for AC Milan are picking up speed. Ronaldinho hasn't been in
World Player of the Year form this season, and he's falling further and further out of Frank
Rijkaard's good graces, with [.
via FCBNews: Barcelona leave tomorrow for Scotland: Barcelona have started training and are due to
fly out to Scotland on 23rd (today) where they will play their first two games of their pre-season
friendlies. Barça will play Dundee United at Tannadice Park on Thursday 26 July, kick off is 9pm
Spanish time, and on Saturday [...]
With 2008 just around the corner, a new wave of young players look poised to mark their mark on the
European stage over the next 12 months. Below is a selection of promising youngsters who are set to
rise to prominence in the second half of the 07/08 season, and beyond.
Samir Nasri (Age: 20, Olympique Marseille, Attacking Midfield, France)
"The new Zinedine Zidane".
Here are ten reasons why Barcelona can no longer call the shots, or at least title-winning shots:
1) The side is very poorly organised. Despite a positive start against Real Madrid at home, they
clearly went off track against more disciplined Los Merengues(who weren't brilliant themselves, but
smarter).
Due to "The Television Wars" in Spain, Sunday's match between Racing Santander and Barcelona was
another casualty of the fight between Audiovisual Sport and Mediapro causing the big game to be
blacked out around the world.
Closer to home, the match wasn't shown on GolTV either. Neither was the Saturday game between Real
Madrid and Atletico Madrid.

Originally uploaded by yjdtjdgyjdgjkdt Giovanni Dos Santos Ramirez anoto gol en la Champions, juego
histórico entre el Barcelona y Stuttgart tres mexicanos dentro el campo de juego en un partido de
Champions League. Aunque no me gusto que alinearan a Gio por el lado derecho siendo, el zurdo,
ademas el que lo cubría era el oaxaqueño Osorio, ventaja para el defensor que ya lo conoce y lo
cubrió muy bien.
There were several clues that this was not an ordinary football interview. Sitting opposite Thierry
Henry was one of them — but the most obvious was the instruction not to mention football.
Henry flew into London after Barcelona's Champions League victory away to VfB Stuttgart on
Tuesday to promote a collection of clothes by Tommy Hilfiger, profits from which are going to One 4
All, the anti-racist foundation backed by the French player.
Today's top transfer rumors: Internazionale have shown an interest in wonderkid Lionel Messi but
the young Argentinean has rejected any potential offers coming in for him. He admitted to being
flattered with the interest shown in him and with the admiration coming from Inter's president
Massimo Moratti but has decided that Barcelona is where he will [.
The biggest news in the transfer circles is the surprising rumour that Chelsea are after
Barcelona's Ronaldinho. The rumour seems to be another product of the Spanish media, and it caused
Barcelona, already under criticism for their opening-day draw at home, to issue a denial and
categorically stating that Ronaldinho was not for sale. We could [...
You've probably heard about it by now since every soccer blogger in the world has posted it on
their blog (including me), but Jose Mourinho has left Chelsea. A bit shocking, but honestly, if his
heart wasn't in it anymore and that clearly seemed the case, he should leave.
The timing of his departure seems a bit odd for a couple of reasons.
The first part of our joyous Christmas transfer rumours bundle... Arsene Wenger quite fancies a bit
of Tottenham's Dimitar Berbatov, and isn't afraid to mount an audacious bid. Wenger said that
Berbatov's performance in the weekend's North London derby was excellent, and apparently this means
he'll fight tooth and nail to gobble him up in January.
Seriously, the dude's got a screw loose when it comes to losing. I'm sure American fans won't need
to be reminded of the Elbow Massacre of 2002 - though, come on now, be honest, it is pretty
difficult to resist wanting to do grievous bodily harm to Cobi Jones isn't it? Then he goes and
shoves his own Barca teammate (Messi) to the ground during a scramble for the ball in Mexico's 3-0
Copa America semifinal defeat.
The tell tale signs that the January transfer window isn't too far away came in the shape of a
totally ridiculous rumour in today's Sunday People in which it was claimed that
Samuel Eto'o could sign for United in a swap deal that would see Louis Saha plus £5m moving in the
opposite direction to Barcelona.
Fergie would no doubt love to have Eto'o in his squad, but does anyone seriously believe this deal
could actually happen?
43rd minute at the Mestalla on Saturday night. FC Barcelona are winning against Valencia CF 2-0 and
are in cruise control. Then a cruel thing happens: Lionel Messi pulls a hamstring and is escorted
off the pitch. Then a doubly cruel thing happens: Ronaldinho, who is on the substitute's bench for
yet another La Liga [.
Barcelona have released their home and away kit for this season (see the 07/08 Barca home kit
here). The 07/08 Barcelona shirts pay homage to the Nou Camp's 50th Annivarsary. The away shirt is
different shades of blue halves, which is a nice change from the orange away kits last season.It
has a Nou Camp [...]
Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger is set to offer Congo striker Tresor Mputu a 10 day trial with the
North London giants.
The 21 year-old forward currently plays for TP Mazembe in the Congo, but with interest from teams
across Europe, it seems like he will be leaving Africa soon.
Salomon Idi Kalonda, director of Mputu's current club, has gone public on the trial.
Today's transfer rumours revolve around Manchester City, strikers, Arsenal's Jens Lehmann and the
silly (or not so silly) Ronaldinho-Barcelona-Chelsea saga. Manchester City are flying high in the
English Premiership and they want to fly higher, it seems. Manchester City chairman Thaksin
Shinawatra is said to be deeply contemplating on whether to make a move for the [.
Mañana domingo se casa Benito, ah no perdón ese sera otro post, 23 de Diciembre y que mejor

50 Cent meets Thierry Henry in ParisDamn, y'all it just all thug life in here. About 1 minute into this video of 50 Cent's recent
show in Paris he brings a special guest on stage by the name of Thierry Henry, who couldn't
possibly look less street. I think his sweater is cashmere (and there is no cashmere in hip
hop).
Michael Johnson's superb strike for Man City, showing why all the big clubs want this kid.

We knew this would boil over at some point. The old 'club-vs.-country' debate.
Who is it more important to play for: the club that pays your bills? Or the country that feeds your
passions?
Word comes out of Spain today that Barcelona are looking to keep currently injured Cameroonian
striker Samuel Eto'o from playing in next year's African Cup of Nations.
While Nike brought out a "Best Team You've Never heard of" in the lead up to the Women's World Cup,
in trying to espouse on the brilliance of the US National Womens' Soccer Team, some pub regulars in
Birmingham had the opposite ideas. Being footballers who are generally crap, and turning out for
their lowly Lynam [...]
Quite a few relative unknowns linked with Premiership clubs today, although considering some of the
unknown players that have done well in the last few seasons, as well as the global market for
players constantly getting bigger these rumours should not be written straight off (feel free to
wait five minutes before you do so). [...]
One of the wildest rumours circling football at the moment is Ronaldinho heading to Chelsea come
January. The Brazilian has not been enjoying his best of seasons this year and claims suggest that
Roman Abramovich is ready to dig deep into that bulging wallet of his to entice him to London.
There were reports last summer [...]
French Ligue 1 champion Lyon reported to sign Barcelona striker
Eidur Gudjohnsen. Lyon ready to move Gudjohnsen with a £7 million cost. Lyon plans Gudjohnsen as a
replacement for their Brazilian striker Fred.
Eidur Gudjohnsen 29-year-old is the captain of the Iceland national
team and is often referred to as the greatest Icelandic player who is currently still in the
game.
In my earlier Champions League review, I went through Groups A-D. I wrap up the review with Groups
E-H, where English giants Manchester United and Arsenal have already secured qualification for the
knockout stage. Group E After drawing with Rangers in Scotland two weeks ago, Thierry Henry and
Lionel Messi saw to it that [...]
Lionel Messi no podrá jugar el clásico español Barcelona vs Real Madrid y Raul jugara como
titular, por eso la empresa que patrocina a estos jugadores no desaprovecho esta oportunidad para
ponerles frente a frente, pero en el futbolin, justo como lo harán los deportistas en sus
concentraciones de los juegos olímpicos.
