Some Transfer Speculations

With the New Year that has just arrived , a couple of breaking news is taking place during the transfer window in January.

Despite losing to Valencia, Kun AGUERO was not left of the hook as apparently Barcelona president Joan LAPORTA wants to bring him to the Camp Nou, during the summer that is. He convened a brief meeting on the last day of 2008 with the intention to stun and impress his fellow board members, by confidently outlining his pet project for 2009.

Incase if you’re starting to look at the prospect on watching Kun and Lionel MESSI linking together in both a Barca and Argentina shirt. Think again, please. Juventus are keen to bring the Atomic Flea to Italy and to do that they are willing to sell Gianlugi BUFFON to allow the cash flow for MESSI.

MESSI is considered to be worth around €75 million by the Spanish side, but he has a €150m buy-out clause on his contract. However Juventus could get some helping hand from Manchester City’s mega rich Arab owners, whom are willing to offer €100 million for the goalkeeper.

Meanwhile Boca Juniors midfielder Sebastian BATTAGLIA could possible be joining Juan Pablo CARIZZO, Mauro ZARATE and Cristian LADESMA at Lazio. BATTAGLIA was in extraordinary form as Boca Juniors clinched the Argentine Apertura Championship, after a decisive three-way playoff with San Lorenzo and Tigre.

The former Villarreal player has become hot property in recent months, and it was reported that he is being observed by none other than European champions Manchester United. Italian giants AC Milan are also in the race to secure his signature.
