Eto'o decides to leave

If the things are as there are them to us counted, there are three substantial new features concerning the future of Samuel Eto'o. The first, and main one, is that the player wants neither to renew nor to follow in the Barça. Second, that the Manchester City demands a definitive answer in 48 hours, and third, that the Barça (still) does not have intention to reduce 25 million that ask by the Cameroun.
We begin… by the end. The version that arrives from the FC Barcelona is that it had valued to Eto'o in 35 million, that has lowered until the 25… and which it does not think to yield more. A question of honor, for, and personnel, for others. Badly business.
It raises, insist some voices, if march Samuel, only remains Measure the perimeter of as front pure center… and the spare part market is complicated. Benzema has fichado by Madrid. The Valencia requests 50 million by David Villa and it does not love players who lower the cost. It wants, exclusively, which needs: money.
Total, that seen thus, in the club there is that thinks that, as is the patio, perhaps the best thing would be than it followed Eto'o. That the history of the past season returned to reproduce. When Samuel ended up itself being, after the own trainer had said that he counted neither on Ronnie, nor with Deco nor with Eto'o. The Barça managed to sell Brazilian both, but the African followed in the group and ended up completing its better season in the club.
That possibility, also expressed and commented in the board of directors of Monday, is not unanimous feeling but, to complete itself, it would have unforseeable consequences. Or rather. Foreseeable. Very foreseeable with Eto'o still on military, arranged to summon a press conference and to explain why it has changed of opinion. Why one feels despised by second consecutive year. Why a day receives a message saying that the best one paid of the group will be, why another one assures to him that the trainer does not want nor to see him and, why, in the end, they end up proposing to him to renew through a SMS treacherous nocturne and. As incomprehensible as the personal opinion of Laporta, perhaps attacked again by the mortal self-satisfaction, when assuring yesterday that, if it depended on him, the Barça not ficharía to anybody.
Something truly unusual, because, to those heights of the film, already everybody knows that Pep Guardiola has designed a project that does not include pieces that not yet it has and it excludes Samuel. And the logical thing, since they cannot bring to him to Ribéry, would be that the Barça, at least, brought the second options to him and, mainly, you discard would complete them solicitd by the trainer. Nevertheless, it has not done it. Perhaps now, with the new position of Eto'o, it is easier to obtain it.
It Would have to be. The difficult thing is that wanting the same, they are not able to reach an agreement. To the Barça it agrees to him that Eto'o goes away and Eto'o wants to leave. And City, by discounted, is wishing that it goes away with them. But, by the other, they are not clarified. Something that would have to try, more soon than behind schedule, to avoid the evils majors. To the club, the player and the Manchester City, that already haste has.
In fact, the English have noticed that they need an immediate answer. They also have stood. They will not pay more of already offered. If there is no fast agreement, will change of objective. The Barça can hope, but they, no.
And it is that the English club, property of sheik Mansour Zayed To the Nahyam, appears in Abu Dhabi the day 15 and wishes to have signed Samuel Eto'o, that, besides being its signing of luxury, would be, immediately afterwards, his superb introducer in South Africa, where the Manchester City will complete the preseason… and where Samuel is next image of the World-wide one
