Oba 不能來?
Oba the age limit?
Newcastle United's bid for Inter Milan striker Obafemi Martins has gone on
ice - while they make checks on the Nigerian international's age.
(＠＠~好像是非洲球員的老問題)
Martins is listed on Inter's official website as having been born in Lagos
on October 28, 1984, which would make him 21.
But reports United are receiving from Nigeria are saying that Martins could
be five or six years older.
(不會吧，虛報歲數得有點誇張吧 = =)
And the word is that Martins was a former playing contemporary of Celestine
Babayaro in Nigeria and the United left-back is 28 at the end of this month.
United boss Glenn Roeder is paying for the spending sins of his predecessor
Graeme Souness, and it's no secret that money is tight at St James' Park these
days.
Certainly a report yesterday that Roeder has ￡20m to spend has to be taken
with the proverbial pinch of salt.
(到底錢要怎樣花呢 ＠＠)
And despite United being desperate for some new blood up front Roeder will
leave no stone unturned when he checks out players he wants to bring to
Tyneside.
(sigh~~沒錢難辦事...)
Valencia have already agreed to pay Inter 14m Euros for Martins and are
prepared to offer the player a six-year contract.
Now there is talk that Manchester United could be interested and the
chances of one of the fastest players in Europe coming to St James' Park do not
appear to be very good at the moment.
Over the weekend all the talk was that Portsmouth, with the backing of
their new Russian owner, were favourites to sign Martins.
（幹～華倫要搶, 港嘴又來搶, 為啥紅魔又來搶 (╬￣皿￣) )
But I hear that Harry Redknapp's real target is another Nigerian, Kanu, who
he hopes to sign from West Bromwich Albion before the Premiership swings into
action on Saturday.
Ironically, there have been questions asked about Kanu's real age in his
spell in this country first, with Arsenal and then at The Hawthorns.
看來前鋒引緩上仍然荊棘滿途
領隊主席們, 加油呀
