LONDON, September 9, 2008 - It seems made for Gianfranco Zola and West Ham and now expect only the official announcement. Announced that the "Sun" claims there is today, both from proprietor peremptory "It's all yours, Zola" ( "E 'all yours, Zola"), after its meeting yesterday the head of Hammers had given a favourable opinion arrival on the bench was that of Alan Curbishley the star of Chelsea, to another Italian favorite in the running, Roberto Donadoni, who also had very impressed Gianluca Nani and Scott Duxbury during the preliminary talks, and after it was judged unacceptable the possibility that Slaven Bilic became the coach of West Ham, while maintaining the current role as coach of Croatia. According to the London tabloid, then, Zola - which firmerebbe a contract of 1.5 million pounds (nearly 1.9 million euros) a year - could bring back as deputy Pierluigi Casiraghi (of which he is now assistant in ' Under 21). Assumptions, the latter, however, that seems difficult to implement, unless this evening in Croatia does not happen the unthinkable and azzurrini fail to qualify for Sweden 2009. Punta, instead, on Steve Clarke as a possible number two of Zola the "Times", which among other things leads to the official announcement on Thursday, given the commitment dell'Under 21 Italian, explaining beyond all that the supporters of the Hammers not would be so enthusiastic about the idea of being led by a former hero of Stamford Bridge.

NEWCASTLE - (almost) done at Newcastle, at least to read the news today coming from home Toon, with Gus Poyet (current number 2, Tottenham) to a pass from the bench, due to its excellent relations with Dennis Wise and Tony Jimenez , Namely the two that have prompted Kevin Keegan to leave. According to the "Sun", the decisive encounter between the owner Mike Ashley and the coach would have happened yesterday in London. And speaking of farewell magpies, to be reported also by Terry McDermott and Adam Sadler, who always yesterday, were sacked by the club, triggering harsh reaction of the fans (already furious for the escape of "King Kev") which, as writes the "Daily Mirror", have "invited" Ashley not get to see more home games of Newcastle. Not only. On fanzines "The Mag" and "True Faith" (http://www.true-faith.co.uk/) fans have given him dell'incompetente and have called on other supporters to boycott the merchandising of Newcastle, then announcing clamorose protest actions at the next race against Hull.

GIOVINCO - There would be behind Arsenal Sebastian Giovinco. I say "Times" and "Daily Telegraph", explaining that Arsene Wenger would have remained literally fascinated by Juventus midfielder during the recent Olympics and would reach the player considered an offer attractive to bring to Gunners as early as next January. From here, support two newspapers, non-renewal with the bianconeri, which offered a contract of 5 years, also view the claim of Giovinco of an employment of 15,000 pounds (almost 19,000 euros) per week. A request deemed excessive by Juve . "Renewal is not my priority - is the statement attributed to Giovinco found on the" Times "- and to be honest, could not importarmene less if my contract will be renewed or not."

PODOLSKI THE CITY? - Continue shopping Manchester City that, having blown Robinho to Chelsea, now looks to 23enne German striker Lukas Podolski of Bayern Monaco. The writes the "Daily Mirror", underlining how badly the player bear to be employed with the contagocce and this could push it to accept the offer of sheikhs of England as early as January. Nothing to be done, however, for David Villa who, through his agent, distanced from the City, as well as Cesc Fabregas (which we went even more heavy, saying that "go to the City would be a suicide for my career" ), While Cristiano Ronaldo could be just a matter of money, if it is true what he writes the "Sun" that the Manchester United agree to race the 135 million pounds, equivalent to almost 169 million euros, which the Arabs were those willing to pay for the Portuguese meantime, however, continues to dream of Real Madrid.

ESSIEN - about to embark on a stop 6 months for Michael Essien after the knee injury remedied in the challenge of its Ghana against Libya last Friday. According to the "Sun", which shows the confidences of a source of Chelsea, the damage would be much more serious than you thought and interested to the ligament crusader, much to be a need for surgery. The confirmation came from the same ghanese agent, Fabien Piveteau. "There are good news, unfortunately, and I fear that this is a very serious trouble." Confirmation of the seriousness dell'infortunio came from a press release of Chelsea widespread in the afternoon: "Essien has broken the ligament crusader front and will be operated as soon as the swelling will be gone. We expect it to happen in a week."
