Pique leaks Fabregas transfer to Chelsea

Spain defender Pique was caught on television microphones in Spain saying that Cesc Fabregas is leaving Barcelona

 
Has Gerard Pique just let slip that Cesc Fabregas
is leaving Barcelona for €33million?
The defender told Spain boss Vicente del Bosque
that he has been told Fabregas is leaving by the
club, and that it was Cesc Fabregas who told him.
The conversation took place prior to a press
conference, with microphones picking up the
hushed conversation between the pair.
Pique is team mates with Fabregas at Barcelona,
and revealed to Del Bosque:
"[Cesc Fabregas] told me [the deal] is done. He's
already leaving, he told me that it is €33million."
Del Bosque replies by saying: "Poor president (in
reference to Club President Josep Maria
Bartomeu). He can't win for losing."
Wind-up? Pique has told Del Bosque that
Fabregas is leaving Barcelona
But the smiles on the faces of Pique and Del
Bosque as the conversation takes place suggest
that it could be part of an orchestrated wind-up
by the pair.
During the conversation, Pique fails to mention
which club Fabregas is moving to, and covers his
mouth as he breaks out into a smile.
Gerard Pique has publicly made clear his feelings
on Fabregas, insisting the club should do
everything they can to keep him.
He told Mundo Deportivo: "I do not know what
will happen, but I hope he stays.
"Cesc has never been sufficiently evaluated in
Barcelona. He is not valued as he deserve.
"Cesc would work in any club in the world, but
this club is very complicated."

Liverpool set to give up Lallana chase and focus on Lazar Markovic.

Rodgers wants firm answer from Saints on England midfielder as he fears Benfica will sell their Serb winger elsewhere in the meantime Shaun Botterill Deal or no deal: Further Lallana delay could see Liverpool chase Lazar Markovic instead Liverpool are ready to drop their bid to sign England World Cup star Adam Lallana - and set their sights on Lazar Markovic.
Kop boss Brendan Rodgers is worried that
Southampton are pricing attacking midfielder Lallana out of a move to Merseyside.
The Anfield club only want to pay just over £20million for Lallana, but the Saints are looking for more than that because they have to give his former club Bournemouth a slice of the profit.

Rodgers is fretting about the possibility of
Markovic, his main alternative to Lallana, being sold by Benfica while he is waiting.
Markovic, 20, was Liverpool's original target for their left-wing slot at the end of the season, but the Lisbon club priced him at £30m then.
However, heavy hints are coming from the
Portuguese giants that £25m could now be enough to secure a deal.
Rodgers wants an answer from Southampton on Lallana immediately or he will go back for Serbian star Markovic, who is much younger than the 26-year-old Englishman and equally talented

SUAREZ: I want to overturn the BAD BOY IMAGE

He's said it before and he'll keep saying it until
you believe him: Luis Suarez is not the man the
press makes him out to be, and he's working very hard to change that image.
Fresh off the season of his career, Luis Suarez is recovering from injury and preparing to play a major role in Uruguay's World Cup campaign.
Easily one of the biggest names of the tournament, Suarez and his season-long
rehabilitation campaign have arrived at the tournament with something to prove to those who labeled him the villain of the last World Cup for his deliberate handball against Ghana."I want to change the bad boy image that has stuck for a bit," Suarez said in a new interview with Sports Illustrated , "because I don’t think I
am at all how I have been portrayed. I would like that to change because it's awful to hear and read what is said of you."On the field, sometimes passion overwhelms you and you do things you regret afterward. At the same time, you have a chance to learn from those things. I think I [have] been a role model since last summer; I have been professional, and I have the desire to forge ahead and play well regardless of what is said to me." Suarez's past misdeeds occurred mostly for club rather than, which has put Liverpool fans in a unique position to nervously watch as months without incident begin to add up into a not insignificant amount of time. It's been over a year since Suarez famously bit Branislav Ivanovic, and Suarez's maturation on the field since then has been largely evident to those not
caught up in chronic regurgitation of Suarez's past.
For any other player it would be enough to convince the world that he'd turned a corner, but instead the World Cup brings back memories of
the one incident even casual fans of the game manage to feel outraged by. It's bad timing, but Suarez's self-awareness is certainly more pronounced than ever and he even seems to be taking on a position that is in direct opposition to the one often used to excuse his past actions.
"Of course they should be," Suarez said when asked if athletes should be considered role models.
"Many times, [athletes’] attitudes are reflected in their performance on the field. I’ve had some attitudes on the field that weren’t very good for my image. But those weren’t really me outside-the field, I’m very shy. I realized I had to adjust my attitude on the field, to continue to play well but without the bad attitude."
The world will have to find a new villain in the next month if Suarez keeps to his commitment to playing a less volatile but by no means less virtuosic game. The World Cup always manages to find one or two controversial narratives, but hopefully any stories involving Suarez will revolve around the success he could
have in the tournament.
