Mido set for England – agent Tuesday 29 August, 2006
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roma striker Ahmed Mido is just hours away from moving back to the Premiership, his agent has confirmed.
The Egyptian striker returned to Italy at the end of last season, after an 18-month loan spell at Tottenham, who are now reportedly fighting with Newcastle for his services.
"Mido will return to England,” said Mino Raiola. “At the time being, there is an equal chance of him signing for Tottenham or Newcastle. We are waiting for the final details, but everything is set.”
The 23-year-old returned to Roma this summer and confirmed during the past few months his desire to stay in Italy, turning down an offer from Blackburn.
Reports suggest that Mido may prefer to return to Spurs, despite their initial decision to not sign him, with the club having already agreed a £3.5m fee with the Giallorossi.
The striker has also been called-up by his national team, scheduled to play their opening qualifier of the 2008 African Cup of Nations against Burundi on Saturday.
With only two days left before the summer transfer window closes, Roma are in need of cash to finalise their summer signings with Argentine Carlos Tevez the first name on their list.
The Brazilian website Estadao.com stated on Monday that the Giallorossi were ready to make an offer for the 22-year-old Corinthians striker, with his agent Adrian Rouco allegedly in Italy to finalise the transfer.
Additional reports in Brazil suggested that Roma may also bid for Real Madrid’s Ronaldo, offering Cristian Chivu or Philippe Mexes in exchange, although this seems to be more a fantasy football scenario. |
