Samuel Eto'o

[Mouri_Matic 560]

Di Marzio:

* We raised the offer for Eto'o from 5m euros to 6m a year.

* Eto'o wants two years deal, but Chelsea let him know that for players above the age of 30 we are doing annual renewals.

* If by Monday the deal with the us will not be closed, Inter will have a shot with a bid of 4m-4.5m deal for TWO years.

* meanwhile Eto'o rejected a contract of 8 million (3 years) per season from Al Gharafa.

* We are in the lead.

I think we'll have both Anzhi's stars in the end of the transfer window.

He rejected 8m for 3 years? Really doubt it...

Spend the money on other(younger) players please..

Chelsea have reportedly agreed a deal to sign Eto'o as part of negotiations to acquire Willian. (Sunday Telegraph)

Sunday Telegraph claim Eto'o is regarded as a stop-gap as Chelsea intend on waiting for Rooney.

If its for 1 year only and for a dirt cheap price then I'm fine with it.

If the last ditch Rooney push fails that is.

[Sidzeret 2,257]

I thought Willian was a weird signing....Hope things doesn't get any more weirder

Eto'o on the cheap as a stop gap is still better than what we've got.

no he aint. i dont think that he is way better than torres or ba atm. he wont bring us forward at no means. dont get this transfer if it happens. will be the same as with essien, just because etoo and mou are buddys.

Torres Ba Lukaku Eto'o doesnt really seem like an upgrade to me and this means less play time for our current ST which is even worse especially for Lukaku. Please Mou, sign someone worth being a 4th ST or dont sign anyone at all.

I don't think Eto'o will actually massively improve our strike force like Rooney would but what he will offer is a different type of striker we don't have.

you can bet anything and everything u have on us either selling/loaning out BA/torres (i will do a naked dance if its the latter one) if we do buy another striker.

Chelsea end Rooney bid by signing Eto'o

We are not signing Eto'o now. We're not signing anyone before the Old Trafford game. And I actually hope we don't sign Eto'o personally... Too old for the philosophy of the club, and a different sort of CF than what we need. I still hope we sign Rooney, and although I don't like his history (being or having been a Man Utd player) you have to give it to him - he's a great player and the sort of player we need. Great link-up play, an eye for goals, can drop back and collect the ball from the midfield, and good finishing.

Despite his history, I'd prefer Rooney over Eto'o any day of the week. And I hope and think we won't sign Eto'o. But then again, I didn't want Willian and that transfer didn't make much sense either (but it's not yet complete though... Here's to hoping it'll never be) so I guess you never know, huh?

Can you read? The article said the Chelsea agreed the transfer, but the announcement will be made next week. Willian deal is almost done.

and the mods should ban these stupid gifts, they are destroying the forum.

as for Etoo would be a perfect stopgap for the timebeing ! then we could go back for Rooney in winter or next summer when he is able to buy out his contract
