Besiktas willing to offer $10 million for Giovani dos Santos
Thursday, 27 August 09, 03:25 PM
Giovani dos Santos still piques the interest of various teams. Now it's Turkish side Besiktas that would like to sign the Mexican attacking midfielder. According to the English media, the team would be willing to put up six million pounds (approximately 9,724,000 dollars) to purchase the rights of the native of Monterrey.
Unlike Greek powerhouse Olympiakos, which is only interested bringing him over on loan from Tottenham, it appears that Besiktas is making the signing of the Mexican attacker a priority. Nevertheless, it looks like the more viable option for Spurs boss Harry Redknapp would be to loan him, given the fact that he's only 20 years of age.

Nery Castilo confirms another EPL squad's interest in him
Tuesday, 22 July 08, 05:25 PM
Following up on a previous commentary regarding Nery Castillo possibly leaving Manchester City, the Mexican international today confirmed on a Spanish-language sports radio network that he has sparked the interest of Tottenham Hotspur. This is a departure from the rumors that another London-based team, Arsenal, was going to approach Shaktar Donetsk about loaning him for the upcoming season.
It's great that a squad that would like to improve on its 11th place finish is interested in someone that could possibly provide a boost to the attack (provided Castillo stays healthy), but this would not be a wise move for Nery. Furthermore, this would not be convenient for the Spurs since it appears that the roster is already set.
Isn't it time to actually play an entire season with the same team? Castillo has been with City for just half a season and contemplating this!
During the radio interview, Castillo admitted that it would be great to join Tottenham since another Mexican, Giovani Dos Santos is on the team. He is intrigued by the possibly about playing alongside a former Under-17 World Champion.
