Milan Baros to join Real Madrid?

Båseline SG

Baros form and goals in Euro 04 has attracted many of Euro's Head Honchos and Real Madrid ahs firmly made a offer to Baros to join them.

In Liverpool FC, we already have Owen, Baros and the newly recruited Cisse in the ranks. This certainly spells goals in the department. But who will forge a deadly partnership is still anyone's guess. Owen's form in Euro has been uneventful but his assists is undoubted in some of England's goals.

And while Cisse comes in with a fantastic goal scoring record in the French League, it remains unclear whether he'll made a blast in the first Season.

So, whilst the competition is healthy up front... Baros has stated that he won't be happy for long on the bench. What Ah Ben will do to solve this? While it's many player's desire to play in a Real Madrid jersey... I personally think Baros should stay where there's more hunger in Liverpool to win Silverwares than in Real. Any which way, Real already has Raul and they need a target man instead of another forward in the mould of Baros.

What say you guys?

From Skysports dotcom:

Liverpool forward Milan Baros has confirmed he has been made an offer to join Real Madrid.

The Czech Republic international increased his stock at over the summer when topping the goalscoring charts at Euro 2004, but his future at Liverpool is in doubt.

Baros was a fringe player under former Reds boss Gerard Houllier and he has yet to speak to Rafa Benitez about his role at Anfield next term.

The 22-year-old said during Euro 2004 that he would not accept a place on the bench on Merseyside, and it would appear as if his comments filtered through to one of the candidates for Real's presidential race.

Lorenzo Sanz has set his sights on landing Baros, and is claiming a deal will be struck if he beats Florentino Perez to the high-profile role, and the Czech star has confirmed he has been sounded out about joining Real.

"Real Madrid have made a concrete offer but it is still a question of discussions," Baros told Czech TV.

"It is only an offer. I still have a contract with Liverpool and go back there on July 19."

Sanz is standing against Perez, and businessman Arturo Baldasano in Real's forthcoming elections.

it will be a wrong move if we let Baros go... dunno whether he will play ahead of Owen but we need depth in the striking department... esp when Owen suffers his annual injury(hope not)...

yes we need Baros more than Real Madrid... and if he wants 1st team football, i think he will have a tougher time getting it at Real when u consider he's fighting for 1st team with the likes of Ronaldo, Raul, Morientes...

Baros going to Real Madrid? Shocked

I say Sell Him at about 10M. I think Baros performed well for Euro 2004 campaign duely because he has good team-mates like Nedved n gangs to provide him the finish.

How many of you seem him performing that well in Liverpool as Liverpool lack of good passer?

I only pity for Baros should he goes to RM, his career will be as good as over there.

Båseline SG

On the flip side... he will be much needed since Ronaldo is injury prone. Razz

frOst^~^nOva SG

Pls pls don't let him go!!!!!!!!! Liverpool need him if they seriously want to challenge for the premiership title. Crying or Very sad

OldMan SG

an alternative is to keep baros and sell owen, which i think is more logical Laughing

Benitez is going to have a big headache with Cisse, Owen, Baros and Pongolle! But what a delicious headache!!! Both Owen and Baros need big man as partner so it looks like it is either Cisse-Owen or Cisse-Baros.

But if Cisse is injured, die! So, maybe they should bring Erik Meijer back! Twisted Evil

OldMan SG

tot we have another striker neil mellor?

Poolman SG

Where got headache for Benitez ?

Big Ben is famous for his Team Rotation back in Spain , and i truly believe , not only he'll keep Baros as one of his man upfront , he's going to rotate among them , and at the same time , makes everyone happy , inlcuding me and you !

The quota of 3 good strikers for EPL , FA Cup , UCL , Worthington Cup is not really enuf ! In fact , it'll be better if we can add one more ! Mr. Green Maybe someone not an out-and-out striker , but as a man-behind the two front man will be good !

Maybe , just maybe , he's planning to do a Arsene Wenger in Liverpool , as in playing Baros for FA Cup and EPL , Cisse on EPL & UCL , Sinama on FA Cup & Worthington Cup run ! That'll be nice ! Laughing

D13 SG

Ya hoh, how can forget the academy boy Crying or Very sad but isn't he another one in the mould of Owen? Hello, hello, not sure ah, just asking out loud, don't jump on me if I got it wrong. Wink

Hee hee, another Tinkerman! Laughing

And...eh...I noticed your last para did not include Owen, how come ah? Shocked

Poolman SG

Oh I see ! Well , if Owen "feels" like playing , let him play for 15 minutes every game , last 15 minutes i.e ! He deserved more rest ! Wink

In a more serious notes , he'll likely to play in almost every game , partnering Cisse , or partnering Baros , or Sinama ! As I said , rotation will be there ! The most likely feature will be on UCL , Owen partnering Cisse in attack , and Baros as a back-up !

Well , we'll see how Benitez do it !

Hellscream SG

I doubt Benitez will allow a Euro golden boot winner to leave on a cheap.Moreover,the transfer is unlikely to materialise now that Florentino Perez is re-elected president.

X-men SG

It will be sad to see him leave… esp to Real

Patrik SG

Sell Owen
Keep Baros
