The Catalonia press is surprised by some comments of his agent.

El mundo deportivo, Barcelona's paper, says the agent "seems different" as last Monday he said "Eto'o is staying for sure" and now he says "We'll see what happens".

The same paper says Rijkaard asked Barcelona directors to sell Eto'o AND Eto'o knows it well.

But his agent, when asked about "Milan?" yesterday he said: "Eto'o is going to the club he wants. It's not Barcelona who decides his future. But we'll what happens."

Problem is, he has a preference for the EPL (Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool) who want him too...

I'm sure he's leaving Barca. The big question is where to?

For Barca it would be much better to sell him rather than R10. Eto'o had a fight with Rijkaard earlier this season, many people in the club don't like him , plus he's not selling shirts like R10. Even Laporta in Athens said ,in private talks, that Eto'o is the one who's gonna leave.

He said that? (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Didn't know...

What I like about Eto'o is... his age. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Compared to Ronaldinho or Henry's one (+1 and +4).
Obviously I'd welcome him. Problem, again, is his mouth - must be quiet, not every week talking b/s to the press.

Anyway misha 1+1=2 is still a possibility. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

He said that?  (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Didn't know...

One of the ESPN commentators said that he heard it.

Still, this doesn't prove anything .. For R10, Milan have been on a wet dream for the past two years and have been following it up. Eto'o has never been in the picture. R10 has practically waled out of Barca, when he didn't attend the Espanol game nor training (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

1+1=2 is quit obvious ... You wouldnt need to look at tabloids anymore to know what will be our fate in this transfer session (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

[redbabies]

if Eto'o is leaving than he's coming to European Champions.

I'm sure he wouldn't fit in English weather. He is used with sun, not rain. (thats one of the reasons)

Moreover, Arsenal and Liverpool cant buy it before us. So only Chelsea can be considered as a real competitor, but knowing that also Chelsea cant spend a lot of money anymore, my final conclusion would be: Eto'o moving Milan, if he decides to leave Barca.

So can we start celebrate already his arrival? Just our interest in him for the past year is enough prove for you? You forget that there is another side involved who's also decides thing - Barca.

Every day you hear a different rumor. Only time will tell...

Well u can look at it from several angles. But what you have to consider, is that Milan is bigger than Barca (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) This is a fact, Milan is bigger economically, has a bigger trophy cabinet, and will be at the highest level (once again) next year.

The fact that Silvio Berlusconi has reiterated his desire to bring Ronaldinho, and ONLY Ronaldinho (last summer) .. Makes it a concrete fact that Milan's #1 target is Ronaldinho (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Eto'o, Henry, Shevchenko, etc all come into context to divert the media's lenses. This is how Milan moves int he transfer market, I am sure u know this full well (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Anyone said that Barca is bigger than Milan? Of course we all know who's superior (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

If he's our target? Yes. If we gonna bring him? Maybe. Yo talk like it's a done deal. But it isn't. At least not yet. Barca may decide to sell Eto'o and to keep R10 or something. We don't know how close or far we are. We just hear rumors all the time. Just now R10 said that he hope that Barca can land Henry and he always wanted to play with him.

The Spanish Lega hasn't ended yet .. Even Shevchenko didn't peep a word, until his transfer was imminent and everything was ready for him in London.

When Zidane transfered to Madrid .. He didn't do it till the season was over and everything surfaced in the end of june ... I mean, these multi million dollar transfers have to happen under the table, for several reasons. They can't be dealt like a 10M pound transfer of Van Persie or Huntelaar ... We are talking about the world's #1 footballer here, his transfer has to be done accordingly and under a serene atmosphere.

EDIT: I am sure of the transfer, cuz I know that Milan is a bigger club ... In that sense, R10 needs to take the next step upwards (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) ...

I'm not saying it won't happen. It might, but it isn't a sure thing.

Milan is bigger but that doesn't ensure us a thing. As I said we don't even know where it really stands.

Just now R10 said that he hope that Barca can land Henry and he always wanted to play with him.

The day before Eto'o said the same.

"Me and Henry? We'd make an hell of an attack." (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

It is quit clear where it stands, but if you want to go on this media circus with Eto'o one day and Henry the next, then of course you wont know where it stands .. (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I think Milan's situation is clear. They want R10 above anyone else and will spend most of their efforts in finalizing this deal. As it has started along time ago, last summer (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

O.k, it's all smoke screen for R10 and you know better than anyone else. Maybe you are Galliani in disguise?
