Would he go to Serie A? Italian club football is on its knees.I'm no cynic said:richards30 said:1dart said:Seems the wrong way around that but what do i know.
No point in negotiating with the club unless we know the player wants to come?
It's the agents who do all the negotiating. Some agents [Kia for one] still think they own the player, though they would reply that they were only 'managing' his career. Once a player has discussed the possibility of a lucrative move with his agent, often without the parent club having any knowledge of it, that agent will talk to agents of other clubs. Players have agents, so do managers, and I think Kia was also Cook's agent [though I stand to be corrected], so from this I think it's fair to say the system is rotten as far as the paying supporter is concerned.

Articolo pubblicato venerdì 5 luglio 2013 alle 14:16 - Calciomercato, Inglese.
Napoli is pondering life after Cavani. The Uruguayan is very close to joining Paris St Germain, Leonardo’s offer is very appealing. Therefore Napoli will have to replace the striker who scored many goals in the past few seasons. The first choice is Edin Dzeko. Manchester City has acquired Negredo in the past few hours, and is now working on acquiring Osvaldo, so their request for Dzeko could be lower now. Other options are Jovetic and Damiao, The Montenegro striker has agreed in principle to a deal with Juventus, and at the moment it appears there have been no offers for him. Damiao was contacted when Zenit pursued Cavani a few months ago, even though he isn’t familiar with Italian football. Cavani is on his way out, and Napoli ponders his replacement.

Dzeko will not be sold unless the clubs valuation is reached in full ....our own version of the release clause
And to a club with £53m to spend, I reckon we should be asking at least £33m.

When you've got players like Kevin Prince Boateng playing regularly for AC Milan and Balotelli becomes the star striker in that league scoring virtually a goal a game, you have to wonder about the standard of that league. Serie A used to be the place to play football, and each Summer Italian clubs would by the cream of Europe and Africa. That changed years ago, and the results are now being seen.I'm no cynic said:Marvin said:Would he go to Serie A?

If the right offer comes in, I'm sure any player would consider it. Napoli will certainly have the money so I can't see Edin having any problems there. But your comment raises an interesting point. A proven goal scorer like Cavani might just find our own league a bit too tough, certainly tough enough for City and Chelsea to resist from paying the silly money that Napoli have been asking.
