1. Lyon 拒絕了華西對Kim既14M Euro Offer
Valencia Give Up On Kallstrom
Valencia have given up their pursuit of Kim Kallstrom after their latest
offer of €14m was rejected out of hand by Olympique Lyonnais.
The Swede is the third transfer target that los Che have missed out on this
summer after the club failed in bids to land Wesley Sneijder and Lucho
Gonzalez.
A representative of the Mestalla outfit held talks with Lyon in France on
Wednesday and put forward the offer of €14m, which would have been paid in
three instalments.
It was an offer that Valencia believed would finally see the Ligue 1 side
buckle, but instead it was met with a definitive no.
Lyon president, Jean-Michel Aulas, was determined not to allow another star
player to leave this summer after seeing Eric Abidal, Florent Malouda, Alou
Diarra and Tiago all depart.
Despite earning €60m from the sale of the quartet, Aulas knows that he
cannot rebuild his team completely in one month and view Kallstrom as a key
member of the squad.
Valencia must now start from scratch in their search for a new central
midfielder and the first name to be thrown into the ring is Getafe's Javier
Casquero.
More talks are set to be held by los Che's directors and coaching staff over
the next few days and a list of targets will be drawn up.
Finances are not a problem for the Spanish league, but there strict policy
on purchases has led them to pull out of deals for all three summer targets
in order not to break the bank.
2. 皇馬加入Lucho爭奪戰,開價25M
Real Madrid Go For Lucho Gonzalez
Having seen some recent deals run into heavy weather, Real Madrid have now
turned their attentions to FC Porto's versatile midfielder Lucho Gonzalez.
The Real Madrid bosses met earlier this week to discuss alternatives, and
the name of Lucho Gonzalez has popped up.
The agent of the player has been in Madrid this week, and held talks with
Pedja Mijatovic on Tuesday, Marca have reported.
An official approach has not been made yet, but it is known that the player
has a buy-out clause of 25 million euros, and that his registration is
shared by Porto and MSI (of Tevez and Mascherano fame).
The player's ability to play on the left, or as a second central midfielder
alongside a pivot, is what seems to have attracted Bernd Schuster.
The coach does not want to play two defensive midfielders, and considers the
likes of Guti and De la Red as not having enough defensive discipline to
hold fort.
The Argentine international is being seen as having the right mix. However,
there will be some competition, as Valencia and Lyon are both making a bid
for his services. |
