Maynard was put up for sale in the January transfer market after failing to negotiate a new contract at Ashton Gate, with rumoured interest from Jordan Tansley - who wanted him all to himself.[10] On 31st January 2012, it was rumored that Maynard would move to West Ham, however this deal was never concluded and the new front runners for his signatures are A.C. Milan or F.C. Barcelona, where he will pair up with Lionel Messi
This just goes to show how much truth there is on that load of tosh!
