So the clubs are now back in pre-season training, season tickets have been sold, new kits on sale...and the fans are eager for that opening game to arrive. It's been a couple of months since the last ball was kicked in anger, and now the wait for it all to start again is less than a month away. The first game of the season, that sunny afternoon in early August is nearly here, do not despair!
But during the summer, there is one thing that happens a lot, and there is plenty still around the corner, and that is transfers, and there have been a few big ones at that! I have already talked about Thierry Henry moving to Barcelona. Arsenal moved quickly to secure Eduardo Da Silva as replacement striker. Carlos Tevez is also keen to leave West Ham and join Man Utd, but it's complicated...! On the other hand, rumours are that Gabriel Heinze is about to leave Man Utd, possibly for Liverpool, although Fergie doesn't want to sell Heinze to a rival. Liverpool, (you see the link here) have signed big names in Ryan Babel and Fernando Torres, spending the American money!!!! And talking of spending foreign money, Sven Sven Sven!!! He's back, and he's back in charge of Man City, who today announced the signing of Brazilian and former Barcelona midfielder Geovanni on a free, to go along with the cash spent on Rolando Bianchi and Gelson Fernandes. Looks like Sven has been busy scouting during his time off!
Well, that's all for now. Hopefully there will be plenty more big signings to come, and don't be too impatient with waiting for that first big game to come (go see a pre-season game to keep you satisfied in meantime).
