Palermo sensation http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Javier-Pastore-c18082 attracting interest from top football clubs – Serie A news
Argentine sensation Javier Pastore seems to be the target of many top European clubs as Manchester United, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 try to add the striker in their ranks.
Pastore joined Palermo in 2009 from his native club Huracan. In the same year, the striker made his debut for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Argentina-c2841 and later represented his country in the FIFA 2010 World Cup.
Pastore has been a revelation for Palermo scoring 13 goals in 59 appearances and due to his goal scoring prowess, the club finished fifth in the Serie A table in 2010.
However, despite his brilliant performances for his side, Palermo are lurking mid-table in the ongoing 2010-11 season.
It is widely speculated that the striker will look for a new challenge come the end of current campaign.
Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini said, “Until the end of season he will play for Palermo. Despite my interest for the club and player, I am already looking for his replacement. I feel it will be difficult for an Italian club to buy him. His price is
already high at 60 million pounds - he will move abroad.”
The Argentine playmaker was widely tipped to sign for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 after saying that he would love to play for the Spanish giants but Barcelona have refused to meet the asking price for the player.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 manager Carlo Ancelotti is trying to land the attacking playmaker to Stamford Bridge. The Blues have initially offered 30 million pounds for the player, however, Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich can splash more cash for the 21-year-old if needed.
Manchester United seem to be interested in the player as well. The Red Devils have made a 34-million-pound bid to land the talented youngster to Old Trafford. It was rumoured that the player’s agent http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcelo-c23554 Simonian has flown to Manchester to finalise the
contract details but later on Palermo dismissed these reports.
With so much interest from the top clubs of the world, it is highly likely that the Argentine will make a big money move to one of the top European clubs in the summer.
