According to press reports in Spain the former
captain of the Barcelona and Spanish international, Josep Guardiola known
as 'Pep', is near joining Fulham. Guardiola took the option to end his contract
with Barcelona at the end of last season to ply his trade outside Spain.
Spanish television station TVE stated that 30-year-old 'Pep' could soon
sign for the The Cottagers for some £2 million.
'Pep' was linked with a host of clubs when he announced his intention to
quit Camp Nou but so far nothing has materialised and Jean Tigana looks
set to snap up the midfield general.
Guardiola had previously revealed his desire to play in The Premiership
and with the football season in full flow the Catalan legend will want to
tie up a deal sooner rather than later.
He has won six league titles plus one European Cup, one European Cup Winners'
Cup, two Spanish Cups, two European Super Cups and four Spanish Super Cups.
It is also reported that Josep María Orobitg, agent of the player,
is in England in order to close the transaction. |
