Official - City end interest in Eto'o [merged]

[oafc dave]

Inter president Moratti has just confirmed they have held discussions with Barca over the Ibra-Eto'o swap deal. They held talks in June earlier and fails to reach agreement, but report this time suggest it seems more possible than ever.

Well, it will be a stunning transfer. lol

I assume Inter will get some cash too? both excellent players but Ibras been consistent in Italy and Inter the last few season straight swap seems a little odd.

Although I guess it could be a case of both players wanting a change of scenery.

I wonder if barca might be thinking of selling someone good (alves/toure) to fund the move, or just dropping the interest in mascherano.

lets hope we will get eto next summer for free

And let's hope his wanting to play in the Champions League won't be a problem ;)

Doubt they would sell Toure after him signing a new deal recently

yeah... that and the mascherano thing are probably dead.

just remembered that hleb's on his way to inter, that'll be 8-10m towards the difference (20m?). spread the rest over a couple of years and that'll probably be that.
