Not much news from the Spurs point of view today, reports say that he is leaning towards Saints and THEVMAN who is ITK at SaintsWeb posted some happy faces so everyone has had to break out the kleenex to cleanup the excitement. Sky Sports Italia Di Marzio expects news tomorrow. Also Osvaldo didn't play in a friendly today due to "injury".
Osvaldo farther and farther from the capital. His absence in Terni is a clear signal that it is working for its disposal that seems straight. The Argentine striker seems to have opened at Southampton.
To the tune of 'Another Brick in the Wall - Pink Floyd' 'We don't need no Luis Suarez, We don't need no Soldado, No Ba, Aguero, or Van Persie, 'Cos we've got Pablo Osvaldo, HEY, WE'VE GOT, Pablo Osvaldo, All in all he's just a, Johnny Depp full of goals'
Not bad. Manages to fit into the original beat of the song, although I had to try the first line a couple of times. What's a Johnny Depp full of goals..? Please don't just answer Pablo Osvaldo..!
According to Inside Futbol (see News Now) or dear friend Pablo has turned down the world famous Benfica too....not big enough for such a talent as him! Strikes me as a knobhead!
Corriere dello Sport: http://www.romagiallorossa.it/featured/osvaldo-va-via-oggi-lannuncio/ TRANSLATION Osvaldo goes away, today's announcement? CORRIERE DELLO SPORT (R. Boccardelli) - Surprise, but not too much. Osvaldo is not there. There's the coach who digs hot kilometers to Terni. The hunt begins. A Osvaldo first of all: it remained in Rome. Why? Unofficially it is in the middle of a deal is about to close at any moment. (...) You are about to close. He might as well not bring it to Terni. But in Terni Osvaldo has not come for other reasons. For example, to spare the usual heavy challenge on a personal basis that has been going on for months. Unofficial apology from his entourage, he played 90 minutes with the national team, is fatigued. Osvaldo yesterday morning he trained in Trigoria, away from prying eyes and ears while Sabatini has tried to put an end to a deal that has been going on for some time. We are in the details, but the details were there already a few days ago, when in London Baldissoni and Sabatini had already closed with Southampton: 18 million plus bonuses to Rome, 3 million per season for 4 years Osvaldo that yesterday had pronounced the 'inevitable ni. (...) ACCELERATION - The written yet another ignominious front of house, promptly re-posted by Osvaldo with commentary "how sad" he had brought back Pablo Daniel about to close the locker and say enough is enough. They were the harsh words tweeting instead by his girlfriend Jimena Baron-protesters against the fans to precipitate the situation. (...) WANT TO PREMIER - Osvaldo So yesterday morning tried to convert that into a yes ni full. He wanted the Premier but with the bank in London, un'Arsenal, a Tottenham for example. But they have not tried. Southampton is only two hours drive from London. We can not be content to 3 million a year and a Premier stage where they can express themselves without too much pressure. Last night Oswald was about to pronounce the fateful yes. Today's announcement, less than sensational and improbable back now.
Secondo quanto riportato da La Gazzetta dello Sport Pablo Daniel Osvaldo sarebbe sul punto di accettare la lunga corte del Southampton e quindi volare in Inghilterra per la sua prima stagione in Premier League. Nelle ultime ore, a tal proposito, ci sarebbe stato anche un nuovo contatto fra l'attaccante e il tecnico del club, l'argentino Mauricio Pochettino. Renowned Italian paper La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Osvaldo is on the brink of accepting Southamptonn's offer.
