Eto'o final countdown. Objective: 11th february


Samuel Eto'o to return to training at Barça on thursday.

The player from Cameroon injured in september could reappear on 11th February against Racing of Santander.

However, Frank Rijkaard does not want to precipitate Eto'o returns because it's a very serious injury.

When Eto'o reappears, Gudjohnsen and Saviola will have to dispute a place on the team.

Saviola also spoke yesterday about his contract: "I am not in a hurry. The renewal can arrive at any time. I insist that Barça is my priority, but, with respect, I am not closing the doors to other teams like, for example, Real Madrid ".

Ramón Calderón: Sorry, I'm so sorry


Real Madrid's president, Ramón Calderón, asked to be forgiven forgiven a thousand times for declarations he made in a university center when he criticised the high wages his players earned and questioned their intelligence and maturity.

Naivete? I don't think so. Maybe it's just a fifth column maneuver to accelerate a process, Real Madrid reconstruction. With one objective: to go back to being a football club able to sell t-shirts all over the world and stop being a company that sells t-shirts of a football club: ;-)

In this photo (from Diarios de Futbol), today's Spanish sports newspapers.
