Barca plot Gudjohnsen bid


Recommended Posts

Barcelona are reportedly preparing an ???11.5 million (??7.93 million) bid for Chelsea forward Eidur Gudjohnsen after talks with Diego Forlan's representatives stalled.

 

The Catalan giants are keen to bring in a replacement for Henrik Larsson and have turned their attentions to the Iceland international.

 

According to El Mundo Deportivo, Barca have agreed on an amount to offer Chelsea after The Blues signalled that Gudjohnsen could leave for the right price.

 

Barcelona are said to be well aware of the interest from Manchester United but they are hoping that the Camp Nou club have an Ace up their sleeves.

 

Jorge Mendes is Deco, Rafa Marquez and Thiago Motta's agent, but, more importantly, he is also Jose Mourinho's representative and has a good relationship with Chelsea's Peter Kenyon.

 

Barca are hoping Mendes' relationship with the Blues executive will be the key to them securing the services of Gudjohnsen. Frank Rijkaard has told the board that he thinks the former Bolton Wanderers star is the perfect substitute for Larsson, who has returned to his native Sweden this season.

 

Well he's the right money but Bolton is the wrong club! Barca and Man U in for him, erm, I don't think we stand a chance do you? :-k

i would be surprised if we put that clause in...that is too forward thinking. at that time we were all for grabbing cash asap.

 

hope we did though.

 

if he goes for 8mil a quick 2mil would be a belter.

 

we could pay campos wages no problem with that.

Even if we did have a clause, these things often have an expiry date on them. IMO he has been at Chelsea long enough for any clause to have expired.
