Barca Offer Eidur For Pique - Report
Manchester United may finally land Eidur Gudjohnsen this summer,
with Barcelona ready to offer him as part of a deal to take Gerard
Pique back to the Nou Camp.
Barca have been tracking Pique, who spent the season on loan at
Real Zaragoza, ever since United signed him from under their noses
three years ago.
The defender, then 17, was playing for the Catalan side's youth
team when United took him to Old Trafford and Barca have been
trying to get him back ever since.
Now, with Sir Alex Ferguson in the hunt for a striker, Barca appear
willing to offer Gudjohnsen as part of a deal according to The
Manchester Evening News.
They will expect money as well but Ferguson may be tempted to go
for a player he has tracked ever since his Bolton days.
The 29-year-old has a fantastic record in the Premier League and
may welcome a move back to England with Barca seemingly deeming him
surplus to requirements.
His opportunities were limited last season after his £8million
summer move from Chelsea.
