Giovani Dos Santos Pertimbangkan Internazionale
12:47 AM
| Giovani dos Santos |
Gelandang Tottenham Hotspur itu menjadi bagian penting dari Meksiko saat merebut medali emas Olimpiade. Keberhasilan itu sekaligus memberikan harapan baru bagi Dos Santos yang tidak memperoleh banyak kesempatan bersama Spurs.
"Internazionale bisa saja menjadi tujuan Giovani," ungkap agen Vicente Montes kepada ESPN.
"Dia punya peluang 50 persen pergi ke Italia dan persentase sisanya ke Spanyol."
"Harus diakui akan sulit bernegosiasi dengan Tottenham. Lihat saja apa yang terjadi antara Real Madrid dan Luka Modric."
Tottenham kabarnya sudah membahas kemungkinan transfer Julio Cesar sehingga terbuka pula peluang bagi Dos Santos menjadi bagian jika kesepakatan tercapai.

Transfer Luka Modric diyakini akan tuntas 48 jam ke depan.

| Luca Modric |
Menurut sumber GOAL.com UK, nilai tersebut disepakati Madrid dan Tottenham Hotspur guna mengakhiri saga transfer yang sudah dimulai sejak bursa musim panas dimulai.
Modric memang sudah menginginkan pindah ke Madrid musim ini. Pemain 26 tahun itu tidak datang tepat waktu ketika Spurs memulai sesi latihan pramusim dan bahkan menolak mengikuti tur ke amerika Serikat.
Tahun lalu, Modric sudah mencetuskan keinginan meninggalkan White Hart Lane dengan tujuan Chelsea, tetapi pada akhirnya tawaran klub London itu ditolak presiden Daniel Levy.

Tim Nasional Indonesia Panggil Arthur Irawan
9:50 PM
| Arthur Irawan |
"September awal kami mempunyai jadwal uji coba melawan Espanyol B, klubnya Arthur Irawan. Arthur menjadi pilihan Nil Maizar untuk melengkapi posisi tersisa. Mengenai hal ini, Ayah Arthur sudah mengonfirmasi bahwa Arthur ingin membela timnas. Rencananya sebelum jadwal pertandingan, Arthur lebih dulu datang ke Indonesia,"ujar Bob Hippy.
Bob Hippy mengatakan, kepergian sejumlah pemain ISL dari pemusatan latihan Timnas Indonesia, tidak semestinya menjadi kendala untuk mempersiapkan timnas menuju Piala AFF akhir November mendatang.
"Kami manfaatkan pemain yang ada. Saya yakin Indonesia punya banyak talenta muda yang bisa diandalkan membela bangsanya. Yang penting, pemain yang punya semangat dan belum terkontaminasi dengan konflik kepentingan," tambah Bob Hippy.

Kejahatan Pepe
11:11 PM
Wayne Rooney memanggilnya 'idiot', Bernd Schuster merasa kepribadiannya berubah saat mengenakan kostum Real Madrid. Namun semua sepakat, Pepe bermasalah.
1. TENDANGAN TERHADAP PEMAIN GETAFE JAVIER CASQUERO (APRIL 2009)

Pepe sendiri sepertinya akan sulit mengulang tingkahnya atas Javier Casquero. Bek Madrid itu memberikan penalti bagi lawannya menjelang akhir partai liga di Bernabeu setelah mendorong Casquero dari belakang. Belum cukup, Pepe menunjukkan rasa frustrasinya dengan menendang bagian belakang kaki Casquero dan kemudian punggungnya, untuk kemudian dihukum sepuluh pertandingan. Pepe pun belum belajar dari kejadian brutal ini.
2. KENAKALAN DI SERIAL CLASICO (APRIL 2011)

Banyak kejadian yang bisa diambil di tiga pertandingan lawan Barcelona di mana Pepe tampil menjelang akhir musim. Ada tekel keras atas Dani Alves, yang membuat Pepe dihukum kartu merah dan tak tampil di leg kedua semi-final, selain menendang wajah Messi, menampar Andres Iniesta, dan membuat gerakan tak pantas ke arah fans Barca setelah Madrid menjuarai Copa del Rey.
3. MENYERANG PEMAIN LEVANTE XAVI TORRES (SEPTEMBER 2011) Frustrasi berkecamuk

dalam partai tandang Real Madrid ke Levante, saat klub ibukota Spanyol itu tertinggal dari tim asal Valencia. Pepe lagi-lagi menjadi pemain yang emosinya tak terkontrol, setelah mendorong Xavi Torres, menendangnya, dan kemudian menginjaknya juga. Wasit kembali gagal melihat insiden ini. Torres kaget, "Saya tak percaya apa yang terjadi saat itu."
4. MENYIKUT MUKA PENYERANG SEVILLA ALVARO NEGREDO (DESEMBER 2011)

Ini salah satu kenakalan Pepe yang kurang populer, tetapi tetap mencengangkan. Bek Portugal itu mengawal Negredo saat bertandang ke Sevilla, dan memutuskan untuk menyikut mukanya saat berebut bola di sudut lapangan. Namun, berbeda dengan Rabu kemarin, wasit melihat kejadian ini dan mengusir Pepe keluar dengan kartu merah. Madrid untungnya tetap menang 6-2.
5. MENGINJAK TANGAN MESSI (JANUARI 2012)

Kontroversi ini terlalu hangat untuk dilewatkan. Setelah dua kali gagal merebut bola dari penyerang Argentina itu, Pepe akhirnya berhasil mendekati Messi setelah Jose Callejon melakukan pelanggaran. Pepe pun menggunakan kesempatan ini untuk bersinggungan dengan Messi yang terjatuh dan menginjak tangannya, tepat di depan mata wasit. Di pertandingan ini, Pepe juga berpura-pura kesakitan di mukanya, saat berebut bola dengan Cesc Fabregas.

Bukti Kejahatan Pepe
9:35 PM
Pepe akhirnya melontarkan ucapan permintaan maaf kepada Messi atas perilakunya. Pepe menyebut yang ia lakukan merupakan ketidaksengajaan.
""Aku ingin mengatakan, insiden kemarin dengan Leo Messi adalah tidak disengaja. Tapi aku ingin meminta maaf kepadanya jika dia tersinggung. Apa yang kulakukan hanya upaya membela tim dan insitusi. Dengan segenap hati dan jiwa, dan pikiran untuk menyakiti sama sekali tida pernah terlintas dalam pikiranku," beber Pepe seperti tertuang dalam situs resmi Real Madrid.
Pun, pernyataan Pepe itu tak serta-merta menghapus kontroversi yang ada. Bukti rekaman yang ada menunjukkan Pepe memang sengaja menginjak tangan Messi. Bukti rekaman memperlihatkan bagaimana Pepe -tengah berjalan menuju wasit- berpapasan dengan Messi yang tengah terduduk seusai dijatuhkan Jose Callejon.
Pepe kemudian sempat melihat ke bawah sebelum menjejakkan kakinya ke tangan Messi. Seolah tak terjadi apa-apa, Pepe kemudian menuju ke wasit dan meminta pengampunan atas hukuman kartu kuning yang ditujukan buat Callejon. Adapun Messi, langsung meringis dan kembali berguling di lapangan.
Atas tindakan yang dianggap sebagai kesengajaan itu, sejumlah pemain dunia -Wayne Rooney misalnya- mengecam aksi Pepe sebagai tindakan seorang yang idiot.
Para rekan satu tim Messi di Barcelona pun tak tinggal diam. Mereka meminta komisi disiplin dari Real Federación Española de Fútbol (PSSI-nya Spanyol) untuk menyelidiki kasus tersebut.Posted in Barcelona, El Classico, La Liga, Liga BBVA, Lionel Messi, Messi, Pepe, Real Madrid, Spain 0 Comment

Copa Del Rey: El Classico masih milik Barca

Spy War El Classico
10:19 PM
Pelatih Real Madrid, Jose Mourinho rencananya menurunkan Angel Di Maria meski pemain sayap itu sempat menderita cidera paha baru-baru ini. Sementara terkait hukuman bertanding pemain bertahan Alvaro Arbeloa, Mourinho akan memilih menggeser Sergio Ramos ke kanan atau memasang Fabio Coentrao. Mourinho juga menghadapi soal cidera Khedira dan Pepe di lini tengah.
Berikut ini komentar dua pelatih itu yang dikutip Eurosport:
Pep Guardiola:
Bertanding di Bernabeu kami harus bijak. Satu-satunya cara untuk mendapatkan hasil dan menjaga peluang adalah memenangkan pertandingan. Madrid adalah lawan terkuat yang bisa saya temukan. Melawan Madrid anda tak bisa merasakan sebagai tim favorit. Tak ada preseden dalam olahraga. Ini adalah soal apa yang anda lakukan saat ini. Besok (nanti malam) adalah hari yang berbeda, di mana para 90.000 penonton akan mendukung tim putih (Real Madrid). Anda harus mulai dari nol lagi untuk menang. Itulah indah sepakbola. Pekerjaan ini tetap masuk akal karena menyuguhkan gairah.
Jose Mourinho:
Berapa banyak gelar yang harus saya menangkan hanya untuk menghindari apa yang saya lakukan? Katakan pada saya apa yang harus saya lakukan untuk memuaskan anda (media)? Jika saya memainkan Karim Benzema, anda akan menanyakan Gonzalo Higuain. Tetapi jika saya memainkan Higuain, anda menanyakan kenapa Benzema tak main? Jika saya mainkan Pepe di lini tengah, anda menekankan bahwa dia sebaiknya di pertahanan. Sebaliknya, jika saya memainkan dia di belakang, anda menyarankan di tengah.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger confirms move for Sevilla centre-back Sebastien Squillaci
2:53 AM
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has confirmed his interest in Sevilla centre-back Sebastien Squillaci but has dampened rumours of an impending move.
Squillaci, 30, was pulled out of the Champions League play-off, first leg defeat to Braga this week to prevent him being cup-tied. The Spanish side soon announced they had rejected an offer for the France World Cup 2010 star worth about £4.5 million.
Wenger revealed he had made a bid for the ex-Monaco defender and was studying other options.
He said: "He is one of the players we look at.
"With central defenders we are short number-wise, so we look at him, but we are far from being close to signing him."
Barcelona set to move for Liverpool's Javier Mascherano as Pep Guardiola seeks new additions
2:47 AM
Barcelona are set to once again express their interest in luring Argentine midfielder Javier Mascherano to the Nou Camp, after coach Pep Guardiola stated his desire to bolster his squad ahead of the new season.
Guardiola, in a press conference earlier today, admitted that he would not rule out any new additions ahead of the closing of the transfer window, and according to television channel TV3, the club are looking to complete a deal for the Liverpool enforcer before the deadline on August 31.
Barcelona are in the hunt for a defensive midfielder following the departure of Yaya Toure to Manchester City, and the collapse of the proposed deal for Cesc Fabregas from Arsenal, with the 26-year-old Mascherano now their number one priority.
Mascherano has publicly stated his intention to leave Anfield to further his career, and following discussions with international colleague Lionel Messi, the player believes that Barcelona would fulfill his requirements.
Last week, Blaugrana sporting director Andoni Zubizarreta passed comment on Mascherano, insisting that the player does not feature in the clubs’ plans for the season, but they have also been linked with an offer of €15 million (£12.2m) plus Aleksander Hleb to land the former West Ham United and River Plate star.
Lyon star Michel Bastos insists he has had no contact with Real Madrid
2:36 AM
Bastos, who represented Brazil during this summer’s World Cup in South Africa, was today the subject of speculation linking him with a move to the Bernabeu, with Royston Drenthe plus €12 million (£9.8m) exchanging hands.
However, L’Equipe reports that although Bastos is flattered by the interest, he has not been informed of any bids from Jose Mourinho’s side.
He stated: “People are saying things right and left, I try not to pay too much attention and it does not bother me, the only thing I want is to return to action soon.
“I do not want to know anything about this story until there is something official, and I have acknowledged it. Real Madrid would be a great club for me but they have not made any offer, and no one has called the club.”
However, Bastos made sure that he left the door open for the Spanish giants to potentially swoop for his services, adding: “I know that the leaders of Real Madrid have said that their signings are over, but you never know.
“If I leave today, tomorrow, or next year it will be because the club believes it is a good deal for them and for me. Otherwise, I will stay.”

Real Madrid star Rafael van der Vaart admits it would be hard to turn down Manchester United
2:26 AM
United have reportedly made enquiries regarding the 27-year-old midfielder, and the Dutch international acknowledges that a switch to Old Trafford would be a logical step for him at this stage of his career.
“They are a huge club and if the reported interest they have in me turns out to be true, then I would really have to sit down and listen.
“If Manchester United could offer me first-team football with the situation as it is at Madrid, it would be very hard to turn down. Alex Ferguson is a great coach and I would never think about joining a team where I didn’t believe I could win things, so all of a sudden that limits your choices.
“At Manchester United you know success is likely and that’s a big factor for me at this stage of my career."
And Van der Vaart seems to be eyeing the Premier League if he does not see much action on La Liga over the coming campaign.
He added: "If [Real boss] Jose Mourinho makes it clear I won’t play much, I see my future in English football."

Mesut Oezil has agreed to join Real Madrid either this summer or next, claims player's father
2:08 AM
Mustafa Oezil declared that his son will be playing at the Bernabeu, either this season or next. The clubs are still negotiating over a fee to engineer a switch during the current transfer window, but if that breaks down the player has pledged to move to the club next summer when his current contract expires.
He also confirmed a better offer was on the table for the Werder star from Inter, but the young playmaker decided to reject the offer in favour of Los Blancos.
"Mesut and I stayed at the chalet of Florentino Perez in Madrid, he invited us there and everything was resolved quickly. We were impressed by his willingness to help my child play for his club," said Oezil Senior.
He continued to say that Werder are reluctant to let their big stars leave this year but "our word is sacred."
Marca revealed that the deal between to the two parties was made shortly after the Bundesliga club had given the green light on a move to Inter, as on offer of almost €30m (£25m) had been tabled by the Italian giants.
"My son has always said that the only club he wanted to go to was Real Madrid."

Toure: I'm sure I'll return to Barcelona
1:56 PM
City paid Barça around £27.5m for the defensive midfielder, who will reportedly become the highest-paid player in the Premier League. Nevertheless, Toure, who will link up with his brother Kolo at Eastlands, revealed the decision to leave Camp Nou was a difficult one.
"The decision to leave was complicated because Barça is the team of my whole life," he told radio station RAC-1. "It was a sad decision because everybody wants to come to Barça and I have had to leave, but not playing has been difficult and it wouldn't have been normal to just sit on the bench and pick up the money."
"I wanted to bring more joy to the fans, but life is like that. Barça is a great club with the best players in the world, but I have played less in this third season, which for me has been difficult."
Nevertheless, Toure hopes to return to Barcelona one day. "I don't feel that I'm away from Barça and I'm sure I'll go back one day," he said.
