The Venezuelan attacker has been earmarked for success for quite some time now and looks to be on the move with interest from the English Premier League.
Salomon Rondon had a disappointing 2011/12 season with Malaga, hitting the back of the net 11 times from his 40 competitive matches. The striker’s output came down from his 16 goals in the previous campaign which needed 36 outings.
Despite the decrease in his productivity in front of goal, potential of the South American starlet cannot be questioned. The 22-year-old has the skills to develop into a target-man with his ball holding abilities, coupled with his aerial prowess.
Qualities of the Venezuelan attacker have not gone unnoticed in the Old Continent, with as many as three English Premier League clubs keeping tabs on his situation at La Rosaleda.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Newcastle are reported interested in acquiring his services ahead of the 2012/13 Premier League season.
The Magpies do not have a reliable replacement for Papiss Cisse and fellow Senegalese striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Demba-Ba-c10812, and want to add Rondon to their ranks for another assault on UEFA Champions League slots.
On the other hand, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380 will leave the Emirates Stadium for greener pastures.
However, the duo have been deterred by Malaga’s asking price for their young attacker who can lead their lines in the future. Los Boquerones want a 20 million Pounds for the services of the 6 ft 1 in star.
Valuation of Rondon by Malaga leaves http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 with the most realistic chance on acquiring the services of the former Las Palmas star. The West London club have the cash to splash in the transfer window after their UEFA Champions League triumph.
It has been reported that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hulk-c16436.
Rondon’s departure from La Rosaleda will significantly bolster Malaga’s coffers as they look forward to their debut season in UEFA Champions League. The Andalusian club need to reinforce their defensive ranks with reliable options and are also in the market
for reliable goal scorers.
