City Extend Interest In Izmailov
Sven Goran-Eriksson is reportedly willing to offer 5.6 million Euros for the Russian international, but Sporting are keen to hold onto their star man.
Izmailov, who is currently on loan at Sporting from Lokomotiv Moscow, has made 31 appearance for his country. The Russian’s agent Paulo Barbosa, was quick to dismiss any possible move for the midfielder though. “Izmailov is enjoying his football at Sporting. He has adapted well to the city and to Portuguese football and wants to progress with his career at the club,” said Barbosa. “The wishes of the player will always come first and Izmailov has no desire to leave Sporting at this moment.” Under the contract signed by Izmailov at Sporting, the Portuguese club are also given first refusal, as part of the loan deal. As a result, City may have to wait until the loan expires, before they can capture their man. Izmailov’s agent is also aware of the constraints of the loan deal. Barbosa admitted that “it will be very difficult to change what has already been agreed.” Since taking over at Eastlands in the summer, Eriksson has transformed City into European challengers, and they currently sit in 3rd place in the league table. source:Goal.com |
