EPL Gossip for May 16th
Manchester United midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo has hinted he may reconsider his future at Old Trafford after the Champions League final. (various)
I don’t think Pele had to deal with the daily transfer rumors back when he was playing at Santos. Would I dismiss Ronaldo leaving out of hand? No, I wouldn’t but I would also think its unlikely he will decide to move on. My own opinion is that if Ronaldo does leave its due to the United owners wanting to sell him to pay down some of that massive debt than Ronaldo requesting to leave.
Chelsea defender Ricardo Carvalho also says that he is unsure whether he will be at the Blues next season. (various)
Carvalho will look around this summer to see if something else interests him. Maybe then Branislav Ivanovic can come out of the witness protect program and actually suit up for Chelsea next season.
Dutch side Feyenoord are interested in signing Chelsea centre-back Tal Ben Haim. (Daily Express)
Chelsea would drive Ben Haim to the airport the second a decent transfer request is made.
Manchester City owner Thaksin Shinawatra has put the entire squad up for sale. (Daily Express)
If Micah Richards as a price tag on his head I’d pay it. Manchester City would be foolish to sell him. Since Manchester City seems to be run by a fool it may happen.
Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas has reassured fans he is not planning to join Real Madrid. (Daily Express)
It’s bad enough for Barcelona fans to see their local product move on to Arsenal it would be even worse to see him play for Real Madrid.
