http://sports.yahoo.com/soccer/news?slug=goal-atleticomadridsdiegoforlani seems like the only other team gunning for Forlan is Galatasaray. What could Forlan bring to Inter?
I heard he is more of the 2nd option if tevez deal is not struck which is directly connected to whether or not Eto'o leaves for Anhzi honestly besides creativity and being a good striker not much...he doesn't have any great dribbling skills and his 34 yrs old..... and if Gasp is gonna use anything with wide forwards or if he wants pacy, good dribbling support strikers then we should look elsewhere
Looking at Diego Forlan playing his 100th game for Uruguay and scoring, I can't help but think what happened to him at Inter? Was he out of form or simply injured or were they just saying he was injured because he couldn't' adapt? Too bad he didn't really make it big in Italy bu he is still an incredible player at 34 years of age.
I would say a combination of the above coupled with expectations of "replacement of eto'o" as well as a high wage with very little goals Had the club brought him in with a lower wage we could have seen him stay, forlan was brought in for peanuts: 5 mill or less
