Although Barcelona have offered Samuel Eto’o a new contract, Mark Hughes is still confident of landing the Cameroon striker.
Hughes commented:
“We have to sit back and see what develops. Patience is a word that has been mentioned – we may need some.”
Eto’o has been at the Nou Camp for 5 years and it was widely assumed he was going to leave at the end of the season. Barcelona had already gone on record as saying he does not feature in their future plans. He can leave for free at the end of next season, so it would certainly seem a strange move for Barcelona to now be considering holding onto him, rather than taking £20m+ now.

As a weekend of promotion and relegation battles begins, Gala Online Casino think they know who is in and out of the premiership next season already, thanks to a study based on the luck of gamblers on their website.
Gala have predicted that Newcastle United will stay in the Premier League next season, based on the study which looked at the luck of online casino customer’s luck by city over the last three years. The Top Ten unluckiest cities seem to show a startling resemblance to the plight of their respective Premier League football teams.
So it doesn’t look like lady luck will shine on ‘The Boro’ on Sunday when they take on West Ham, as Middlesbrough topped the Online Casino’s unluckiest city list.
It’s also bad news for Hull City fans who might be hoping to retain a place in England’s top football league, as they only fare slightly better, coming in as the sixth most unlucky UK city. So things are looking quite favourable for Newcastle United, as they prepare to take on Aston Villa.
It could be good news for Burnley fans also, with the Championship play-off final taking place next week between Burnley and Sheffield United. According to the study Sheffield is the second most unlucky city in the UK. So it could be Burnley cashing in on promotion to the Premiership which, according to analysts, is worth an estimated £60 million to the club.
The correlation between the luck of players on the online casino and the fate of Premier League football teams is staggering. Anyone who remains unconvinced should look at the recent bad fortune of Liverpool and Leeds United, both having experienced end-of-season heartache and prominent placing in the list, at fourth and fifth unluckiest cities in the country.
