Just translated this off El Mundo Deportivo make of it what you will:
Samuel Eto' or he centered the attention yesterday, and also the preoccupations, of the sport leaders of the FC Barcelona, obsessed to provide a definitive solution to the situation of the Cameroun. The supply of the Manchester City, outpost exclusively by catalogued Md and of " brutal and very difficult of rechazar" by Joan Laporta, it was the triggering factor of a tense day for Txiki Begiristain and also for Josep Maria Mesalles, agent of the Cameroun. It was Mesalles that made yesterday the first movement in the game of chess which they are dissolving both parts. After seeing in different newspapers the words from the president and analyzing the situation in which it was represented his, the agent summoned a press conference for today. In that appearance, Mesalles has predicted to explain the position of Eto' or. On the one hand, to the soccer player it has not liked the situation in which it has been after confirming Laporta the supply of City. ' nueve' it considers that it has been put to him in the disparadero. It accepted if it, fears to be catalogued of ' pesetero' since City has few sport aspirations and would give the image to look for to only be the soccer player better paid of the world. And if it does not accept it, it knows that again there will be some who it accused to enrocar itself looking for to him to be free of contract the next year for, thus, to acquire a succulent premium of crossing. Again - it considers would stay as ' pesetero'. In any case, Samuel is not in favor of the work to go to City and thus his representative will confirm today. Mesalles also has predicted to announce the decision of Eto' or to appear day 20 of July in the first training of the equipment, in an unequivocal sample of which it wishes to continue playing in the Barça and which, from the club, many describe like a clear pulse to Laporta, that abrió the door to him to the Manchester City. Pep, by means Mesalles also wishes to send a clear message: it wants that the Barça is clarified. And it is that, according to the agent, the club communicated to him at the beginning of June that Pep Guardiola did not have Samuel and that, therefore, the best thing was that equipment looked for. According to Mesalles, that does not square to them since the trainer never transmitted face to him to face to ' nueve' that it does not have him and, they assure, Pep took leave of Eto' or with the phrase " until the 20 of julio". Reason why it seems, the figure of Pep in ' Eto' case; o' it is going to begin to be in center of the controversy. In addition, from the surroundings of the Cameroun the continuous interventions of Laporta fence in which it express its desire of which Samuel renews by the Barça in spite of being clearly in the market. Connoisseur of the intentions of Mesalles to summon a press conference for today, in the azulgrana club analyzed itself yesterday behind schedule which was the best tactics to follow. At heart, one is a strategic combat and the two parts try to play their tricks to be as well as possible before ' contrario' , the partners and the public opinion and, of step, to remove the sheer major. Against this background, the FC Barcelona let know the nine at night past that it had decided to present/display a supply of renovation to Eto' or of two years more, aside del than already has. That is to say, a proposal until 2012 in which the club maintains the same card to him that it has at the moment. Now Samuel must value if the supply is an invitation to follow - as it maintains the club or not to accept it and to go away, with the risk of staying as ' malo' of the film. According to it has been able to know Md, the proposal does not seduce too much to him. Today, at least, Mesalles, that knew the supply renovation of the club by SMS, will clarify some doubt
