Is Heskey on the move

Could it be true?

From the BBC

Quote:

Lyon reject Heskey offer

Lyon have turned down the chance to sign Emile Heskey after refusing to meet Liverpool's £11m asking price.

The French side were reportedly offered Heskey's services but wanted to take him on a season-long loan rather than in a permanent deal.

However, Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier is believed to have wanted a straight cash transaction so the move fell through.

Damn! They've not gone for it...so far.

That would be superb. £11m for a donkey! :)
 
Yeah but breking even on the deal would be mucking refarkable in the current transfer climate, Chelsteal excluded.
 
I think it was something in that region. But would you pay £11m for him? I wouldn't, then or now.

Sadly, doesn't look like Lyon are going to either. Cheapskates! :mad: :D

And i briefly saw a bit of sky sports in the pub tonight. I'm sure it said the pool were denying the story?

Lyon are now apparently interested in mark viduka who has just withdrawn from the Leeds squad that's travelling to Dublin for friendlies against aston villa, shelbourne & st pats this weekend.

apparently he has a "sore ankle"....
 
I met viduka last saturday and he looked like he'd lost some weight recently. he said he wasn't going to leave Leeds but I didn't believe him....
 
Don't blame you: bet he had his fingers crossed.
He's off all right, just doesn't want to put in a request and miss out on his loyalty payments.

Any idea who monkey-boy's after to replace him?
 
yeah he is hedging his bets. I met him at the "special training session" for the first team at elland road to which season ticket holders were invited - viduka spent a long time chatting to fans, signing autographs etc and was asked several times if he was leaving but denied it. incidentally, reid is looking to bring in another striker even if viduka stays but I've no idea who....

last season he was repeatedly saying he was happy to stay at leeds but over the summer while an agent has been touting his services all around europe he's adopted a "no comment" attitude to questions speculating about his future even though the club have been 100% clear about not wanting to sell him....

altho I couldn't blame any of our players for wanting to leave I'd be really pissed off if he suddenly departed just before the start of the season. if he wanted a move he could have made that clear at the start of the summer and because he's got 3 years left on his contract we could have got a decent fee for him - and replaced him by now.

I'm fairly confident that we can get the 45 points we need to guarantee premiership safety with the current squad but without viduka we'd be in big trouble up front - with only smith (who's been playing on the right side of midfield for most of the last 2 seasons), bridges (who's still not fully fit) and simon johnson (who's scored a lot of goals for the reserves but has looked well out of his depth in his few appearances for the first team) - so I reckon we'd have to buy 2 strikers in a hurry....
 
just read on the LUFC website that Marseille striker Lamine Sakho is to join the United squad in Dublin today after being given permission by the French club to join Leeds on a trial basis initially....
 
I know football is now just one big business with players and agents all out for as much as they can get, but footballers rarely make their desire for cash as obvious Rotherham's Alan Lee:
"I would be excited by a move to Cardiff, I'm at the time in my career when the next move is crucial," he said.

"I've heard about the sort of wages that Cardiff players earn and about the set-up there - it's the sort of progressive club I want to join."

according to reports in portugal man utd are on the verge of signing cristiano ronaldo from sporting lisbon.

he be quality but surely cant be ready for the premiership at 18 can he?? right sided midfielder(the reports keep saying striker but theey are lieing!!!!) he will be class but not convinced he is ready for a man utd starting 11 just yet.


dave
 
I dunno, i think they're doing it for the BBC headline...

MAN UTD SIGN RONALDO

Everton hav signed up Lie Tie for 3 years.

And Norwich want David Connely, the ungrateful bastard :D

no. it's £12.5m just for Ronaldo. just checked BBC Sport, Football 365 and Man U website. This was the figure announced to the stock exchange because the deal has been completed. the Kleberson deal totally seperate and not rubber-stamped yet.
 
they paid that much for him??????
