0

Mario Gomez is going trough a tough period of his life. Even if he just signed a contract extension with his team, Gomez is not happy at Bayern.

The 27 years old forward has lost his starting place in the favor of Mandzukic who is having an extraordinary season. Mandzukic came at Bayern last summer to fill the void left by Gomez injury. Super Mario suffered a ankle surgery just after the Euro 2012.

Gomez declared that it’s to early to talk about his future but if the situation will not change until the end of the season he might consider leaving Bayern.

Gomez is considered one of the best strikers in the Europe at the moment and there are a lot of teams that would be interested in signing him if he decides to leave.

The things might change next season when Guardiola will be in charge at Bayern. It is well known that the Spanish coach is an admirer of Gomez  abilities and that he also tried to sign him when he was coaching Barcelona.

Guardiola interested in bringing Rooney at Bayern

Latest rumors from Premier League suggest that Wayne Rooney is not happy at Manchester United. This is due to the fact that he was not used so regularly as before.

Rooney was on the bench also in the crucial game against Real Madrid and came in only in the second half at 2 – 1 for Real. Others suggest that there was a rift between him and Sir Ales Ferguson as the player is not feeling so important after Van Persie’s arrival. Rooney was close to leave United also when Ronaldo was sold but was convinced to stay and signed a new deal.

Now with this news there are a few interested teams in signing him. Manchester City and PSG are two of them but the transfer to this teams has small chances of succeeding. Mancini declared that he would want Rooney at City but with the rivalry between the clubs is hard to believe that Rooney will join City.

Lately Bayern have entered into the race, as Guardiola is an admirer of the England international. €22 millions might be enough to take him from Manchester.

Latest news from Serie A suggest that Juventus are ready to bid for Angelo Ogbonna from Torino. Ogbonna recent performances have not passed unnoticed.  Juventus and Bayern are interested in signing the 24 years old defender.

Juventus would like to make the deal before the end of the season in order to avoid competition from other clubs after the bad experience they had with Marco Verratti when he chose PSG in their favor.

Torino chief has admitted that Ogbonna might leave Torino in the summer. They put a €19 millions price tag on the player but Juventus are hoping to secure the deal for only €14 millions.

Will Simeone take Inter this season?

0

Diego Simeone declared recently that he will be the Inter coach at a time. This came as a result to the latest rumors from Italy press that Massimo Moratti already contacted Simeone to replace Andrea Stramaccioni.

Inter had  three consecutive games in which they failed to win, two draws with Roma and Torino and than a lost against Siena which destroyed their chances for Serie A. Even worse they could miss Champions League as they are currently fourth in the standing, one point behind 3rd place occupied by Lazio wich would give them a chance of playing in Champions League.

Inter won the last night game against CFR Cluj 2-0 and they have good chances of qualifying to the next round. If that would not happen then Moratti will probably sack Stramaccioni.

The Italian coach took charge at Inter approximately one year ago in a disastrous period for Inter and helped the club to finish on six at the end of the season. Stramaccioni is one of the youngster managers in Europe.

Simeone pleyed at Inter between 1997 and 2001 and won the Europa league in his first season. Last year he won it also as a coach with his current team Atletico Madrid.
