According to reports from Spain Real Madrid are about to announce the signing of their player Huntelaar which is the first of the many transfers to come in the winter. They tried to sign the player in the summer window along with the European Champions Manchester United but both the teams failed to sign the player as the player decided to stay in Ajax. The player had a wonderful season last time in Ajax as he emerged as the leading scorer for the year in all competitions in Netherlands but it has to be accepted that the standard of football is not that good in Holland. The Spanish press report that Real Madrid have effectively signed Dutch striker Klaas Jan-Huntelaar and will unveil him in the transfer window. He has scored 75 goals in the 90 gmaes he has played so far and this acts as a huge advantage for the player. The only negative point is that he is injured until January and has never played for a top European side in the past, despite his age. Huntelaar was made club captain earlier this season by coach Marco Van Basten and appeared at the European Championships for Holland, finding the back of the net against Romania.
David Beckham has decided to move to the Italian side Milan on loan in the winter transfer window that is due to come in a couple of months. This was a move totally unexpected by the sporting world as the player is the highest paid sports person in America and also there are a number of players in the Italian side and hence they did not need extra power to add to the team. Beckham has been playing less football right when he left Real Madrid for the high paying L.A.Galaxy as the number of matches in the American league is very less compared to the matches in the European nations. To add this David Beckham also become a non regular starter for the national team as his place in the team was captured by the youth powers like Wright Philips and Theo Walcott but still the class and the style in the player’s game play hasn’t vanished and his last couple of matches for the nation proves this. He played for just under half an hour and he was flourishing with his passes and crosses which the forwards failed to convert into goals. This wasn’t spoken much as England won the match commandingly with a 5-0 win. Beckham assisted one of the goals in that.
It was a shock the football fans all over the world as the transfer window closed today. Many have anticipated a lot number of players to leave their respective clubs with Cristiano Ronaldo topping the list of moving to the Spanish giants Real Madrid but Sir Alex Ferguson held the player with the club atleast for this season. Manchester United was the only top club not have made a single transfer this transfer and they were the team to be watched closely on the last day of the window. They succeeded in signing their target in Dimitry Berbatov and Tottenham would be unhappy with the decision of the player to move from the club as they have already lost its striker Roy Keane to the Merseyside Liverpool. The surprise came from Manchester City who were bought by the new owners from Abu Dhabhi and are ready to spend a lot amount of money on the players in the country. They were leading in the bid for the Tottenham player before Manchester United grabbed the player. Manchester City succeeded in signing the Brazilian star Robinho from Real Madrid, a move none of them in the football world would have anticipated. This has raised a lot of people towards the club and the manager of the club Mark Hughes said that he was looking forward to work with the player. The fans of Manchester City are very much happy with the decision of their owners to invest a lot of money in players so that their chance of contending for the title too increases. Lets see how far Robinho stars in England.
