So according to that he would rather stay?

After reading it, I can basically gather that we've offered £25ish for him, we've offered to pay him 10 million Euros p/a and its not up to Eto'o. Stumbling blocks are that we're not in Europe, and he thinks that if he leaves for free next year he may be able to get an even better contract.

----------- Machine Translation ----------------
Sports World has been able to know, the representative of Samuel Eto' or, Josep Maria Mesalles, calls for this Tuesday a press conference in the Cabbage·legi of Periodistes of Catalonia to communicate the official position of its represented, more determined to be remained in the FC Barcelona that has to accept the offering of the Manchester City. The environment of the player considers that unacceptable that the club want to cause to see that the conditions of contract of 'Samu' are the ones that paralyze the operation between the Barça and the Manchester City and affirms that the first option of the Cameroonian one continues being the club azulgrana. Thus, this Monday in the morning, the operation is more open than never and Eto' or has not given a yes final one to the English operation. For the time being, the sports option to be remained in the champion of Europe (and to leave free the next season) weighs more than the economic option. Figures millionaires The transfer of Samuel Eto' or to the Manchester City depends already exclusively of the forward Cameroonian one, every time that the agreement between the FC Barcelona and the English club is already practically closed around the 30 million euro, just as has reported Sports World. Now it decides Eto' or, that today anticipates to arrive at Paris and that already is an expert of the offering that the City has done to arrive at his representative: 10 million net euro for season, a figure very over the highest one than the Barça would be willing to offer him in an enlargement of contract and that would convert to the Cameroonian one in the forward better paid one of the world. The Barça is satisfied with the 30 million set as total total of the transfer, although will accept the formula of 27 fixed more 3 in variables, that has been the last proposal of the Manchester City. The problem so that the operation can be closed is in the cousin of transfer that Samuel Eto' or desires to perceive. Eto' or considers that within a year, free of contract, would be able to negotiate some even more profitable conditions than the ones that would obtain now of the Manchester City and that be in conditions to demand a cousin of transfer, for which understands that corresponds him a clearing. The money of the City The City, on the other hand, does not want to pay more, since feels that already has been quite generous in its offering, so much with the Barça as with the forward one. If it arrives to the 30 million in the agreement with the Barça, itself will not take charge of a cousin of transfer. Eto' or, therefore, has now more than ever the key of the operation, although the strategy of the Cameroonian one has not changed excessively: has contract with the Barça, knows that in 2010 would negotiate in more profitable conditions and its first option is to continue in the Camp Nou. That yes, it negotiates with another club, thing that had not happened up to now. The City trusts in its possibilities to convince him with those 10 million net euro by each one of the five seasons that offers to the Cameroonian one. The club of Manchester, great rival citizen of the United, is conscious of their competitive limitations inasmuch as themselves has not been classified to play eurotorneos, but dreams of build a winning team thanks to the millions contributed by the magnate of Abu Dhabi Sulaiman Al-Fahim, that already they have convinced to Robinho and Tevez, among others. The Barça has not done any formal offering to Eto' or to expand their contract, among others things because the club barcelonista knows perfectly which are the economic aspirations of the forward Cameroonian one for enough time, aspirations that the Barça cannot satisfy. Eto' or, therefore, is more than ever who has the key so that the Barça and the Manchester City can give the operation by closed

Samuel Eto'o's agent will hold a press conference on Tuesday in a bid to clarify the Barcelona striker's future.

On Sunday, Barca president Joan Laporta claimed Manchester City have made a "stratospheric offer" to Eto'o.

The Cameroon international's future is the subject of conjecture as he enters the final year of his current contract.

Reports emanating from Spain suggest Eto'o's representative, Jose Maria Mesalles, is to announce the forward plans to see out his deal at Barca....


Boooooooooooo :-(
 
Re: Samuel Eto'o [merged]

Seems to be a very Barca based report, but, regardless of what our ITK posse on here say, i dont think for one minute it is done.
