Wigan chase Egypt wing back

08th March 2010

Wigan are weighing up a move for Egypt’s marauding right back Ahmed Al Muhammadi after he impressed last week against England. Roberto Martinez was one of several Premier League managers who sent scouts to the game and they admired how the 22-year-old attacked at every chance. Al Muhammadi, who plays for ENPPI, has 40 caps and is called the ‘Ronaldo of the Middle East’ because he is also comfortable in a more advanced role on the right wing.

Ribery opens door for Chelsea move

08th March 2010

Franck Ribery has opened the door to a summer mega-move to Chelsea after admitting his future should be decided before the end of the month. Bayern Munich are desperate to hold on to their star player and will present him with a new contract after Tuesday’s Champions League match at Fiorentina. However, the 26-year-old has doubts about the German club’s ability to compete with Europe’s elite and will spark a bidding war for his services should he snub Bayern’s offer. “I’m not 100 per cent going to Real,” he said. “Barcelona and Chelsea are also very interested. We will see. It will be decided in two to three weeks.”
