Haz Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> CHAMPIONS LEAGUE finalists Monaco are believed to be lining up a firm bid for Rangers star Mikel Arteta after being given permission to discuss terms with the player's agent. The Daily Mail is reporting that Arteta's advisors travelled to the principality earlier this month to seal a deal and now Rangers are waiting for a formal transfer offer for the Spanish midfielder. Manager Alex McLeish made it plain to rangers.co.uk last week that Arteta would be sold if the price is right and there is little doubt that Rangers would want to recoup a large percentage of the £6million they paid Barcelona for his services two years ago. Arteta has already enjoiyed a successful spell in France, spending 18 months with Paris Saint-Germain on loan where he played Champions League and UEFA Cup football. Ibrox chaiman John McClelland, who is Gelsenkirchen for tonight's Champions League Final between Monaco and Porto, told the Mail: "Monaco have not been in touch with us about a transfer fee but Arteta's agent has spoken to a number of clubs around Europe. "As ever with matters of this nature we will have to see what transpires." <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> That's from the official website. Since he wants to go they should get shot of him asap - it'll be interesting to see what kind of player he develops into in the long term. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haz Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Maybe still a chance of getting Novo? <BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> RANGERS are set to land Nacho Novo despite having their latest offer for the Dundee striker knocked back. Record Sport can reveal that the Ibrox club put in a £250,000 offer for Novo on Monday. This followed discussions between Rangers' director of football business Martin Bain and Dens Park administrator Tom Burton. It is understood Burton rejected the offer and is holding out for a fee closer to the £1million mark. However, Rangers are still waiting to hear officially from the cash--strapped Taysiders and negotiations are expected to open up again at some point in the next 24 hours. Yesterday, Dundee chief executive Peter Marr refused to speculate on the players the club will be forced to sell. But he said: 'We are no different from any other Scottish club, all our players are for sale at the right price.' Record Sport first revealed in January that Rangers boss Alex McLeish would attempt to land both Novo and Scotland midfielder Gavin Rae from Dens Park as the accountants moved in to stop the club from going to the wall. McLeish moved swiftly to tie up Rae for a cut-price £250,000 before the winter transfer window slammed shut and has now made his move for Novo with another knock-down offer. This time,however,Dundee are unlikely to settle for such a low price and Rangers may have to double their initial offer to land a striker who McLeish believes could net his side 30 goals a season. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> That is from the Record mind you :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ibroxclubworshipper Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 Record seem convinced Novo will come once a fee is agreed, and they say Dundee are looking for £1m. Daily Express says that Rangers and Celtic are in a bidding war, with Celtic asked to be notified on any bids made for Novo, so they can just outbid. What did people think of Prso last night? I didn't catch much, but from the radio it sounded like he played not bad. The Record was making him out as a villain for 'flopping' a good chance early in the 2nd half, which I have yet to watch on the video. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henchoz_6 Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 If Dundee think they'll get a million for Novo there having a laugh. He's only got one year of his contract to run and they have only come out of administration because of creditors generousity. They should take between 250-400k with a smile. Prso looked ok last night - had a bit of presence in the air and bit of speed. But Porto were solid at the back. I think when he starts for Croatia in Euro 2004 - we'll be able to judge more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vidmar Posted May 27, 2004 Share Posted May 27, 2004 I thought Prso looked strong, won almost everything in the air but not so good footballing brain, i think if we can get the likes of Novo and Arveladze playing around him he can be good foil for them. Hope we do get Novo but i would'nt pay 1 million for him, maybe 2-3 years ago he'd be worth that but not now, 400k tops. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Bhoy Tim Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 Obligatory comment on Prso: Before the final I read he was the hold up the ball type of striker who doesn't score much. Did just that sort of work, excellent at times and poor at others. Not as good at Sutton in his passing or holding up but still good. Could easily do well for Rangers if he lined up with Thompson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dutch international has signed a one-year deal with Al-Rayyan after two weeks of talks in the Middle East.

Vidmar Posted June 3, 2004 Share Posted June 3, 2004 Alex Mcleish will offer Chinese keeper An Qi the chance of a dream move to rangers. The Ibrox Gaffer is frantically looking for cover for gers no1 Stefan Klos next season with Alan Mcgregor set to go on loan. In a bid to solve his problems big Eck could turn to Qi when he hands the 6ft 4in goalie the chance to prove himself during rangers tour of austria next month. Oi's agent Eric Manasse said "he's one of the top keepers in asia and is the no1 choice for china's olympic team for athens later this summer" If he manages to convince Alex Mcleish he might be offerd a deal. For rangers this would be a good way to break into the chinese market. Qi has been a defensive rock for Dalian Shide since his dream move to newcastle fell apart 2 years ago after he suffered an ankle injury. Toon boss Bobby Robson was keen to bring him over for a trial but had to put his plans on ice when the 23 year old broke down in training. -------------------- Interesting...

HAAHAHAHAHAHA <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Your right, that is a laugh. Novo at Rangers would prob hit more than 30 goals in a season for Rangers. He was scoring 30 odd goals every season while playing in Spain, came to us at the Rovers and hit over 20 goals in a team that got relegated, then went to Dundee and has just hit over 20 goals in a season for them. The guy is a natural goalscorer. This is the same as Billy Dodds, I said to my Rangers supporting mate that Rangers should sign Billy Dodds because he would score a barrowload for them. I was told I was talking crap and that Billy Dodds wasn't good enough for Rangers. A season later Dodds was signed for Rangers, and proved me right by banging in a load of goals for them before Dick realised he wasn't Dutch. If a player can bang in as many goals as Novo does in teams which don't create very many chances then think how many goals he'll score in a team which DOES create a lot of chances.
