20 Players who will not be in their current club next season – Part 7
Michael Owen (Manchester United)

The Englishman had been signed by Manchester United on a free transfer last season after Newcastle was relegated from the Premier League in what was considered to be by most a risk worth taking considering that he came without any fee and was contracted on
a “pay as you play” deal.

Michael Owen has had a glorious history and has been a force to reckon with during the last decade. He has been a useful cover striker for Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson coming up with some crucial goals in a number of matches. His form has been hampered with continuous
long term injuries which have deprived him of his cutting edge and pace.

Once regarded as the most clinical striker in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749, he has been lacking in the goal scoring instinct and has diminished as a coveted striker as he moves past his prime age.

With http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dimitar-Berbatov-c11254 heading the goal scoring charts of the Premier League, Rooney rediscovering his form and chipping in regular goals and assists, Hernandez is the brightest prospect at Old Trafford with his brilliant debut season. The return from loan of

It is highly unlikely that any top European or English club would want him in their roster given his history of injuries and his dwindling form. The former Liverpool ace will not have a lot of suitors and with the speculations associating him to Derby County,
as he may finally head over there for his career to take a respectable bow.
Jose Enrique (Newcastle United)

With many top clubs in the market for a world class left-back, Jose Enrique would fit the bill for many top European sides. Gifted with pace, strength and exquisite technical skill, Enrique is the kind of player who would prefer to pave his way out of trouble
rather than heave the ball towards the half way line.

A problem with the newly promoted clubs is that they are robbed of their star players when they start to go past their expected first seasons in the top league. Such is the case with Jose Enrique who like Charlie Adam, Steve Mulumbu and Odemwingie has attracted
interest from numerous top clubs. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 are the likely targets for the highly talented left back. Newcastle fans may well start to worry because most probably their star player won’t be in the black and white stripes next season.

After he had endured a difficult season when he entered into the English Premier League, he has since developed into one of the finest young wing-backs. He will be a superb acquisition for any club who would be in the market for a strong left-back.

Newcastle will try their best to keep the left-back at St. James’s Park with an improved pay rate but there is no reason he will want to stay in a mid-table team fighting relegation rather than play for a club competing for top honours and chance to feature
in the lucrative Champions League.
