a écrit le 19 juin 2008 à 17h17 Samuel Eto’o spotted at Arsenal today
Could be a wind-up, but the story was relayed to us in good faith
By Kevin Whitcher
Just got a call from a reliable source. They know someone who was at the stadium today and saw Samuel Eto’o and Gary Lewin in the boardroom in Highbury House.
Eto’o – the scale of signing that says Arsenal mean business?
What that combination might be doing there is a mystery. If it was to do with a medical, then surely it would happen at the training ground, no? Maybe Lewin just happened to be there at the same time and took the chance to catch up with news of Eto’o’s pal at Barca, Thierry Henry. Who knows? Anyway, let’s just say it’s true for the sake of argument and discuss the implications were Eto’o to actually sign for the club.
Firstly Wenger has expressed regret that he missed out on the player earlier in his career. So there is an existing admiration. Barcelona are reputedly trying to come to some agreement over Alexander Hleb, so who is to say that Eto’o might not be involved in the deal.
If Milan are seriously going to offer daft money for Adebayor, then with Van Persie beginning to look like the player he has only sporadically been for Arsenal, Eto’o might be seen as a good replacement for Adebayor, should he go to Italy. He’s certainly more proven at the top level.
Eto’o seems to have been around forever, but in fact he is only 27 years old, so age does not count against him, although his experience would undoub
