Barca confirms City offer for Eto’o

Barcelona president Joan Laporta has confirmed that Manchester City have made a massive offer to Cameroon international Samuel Eto’o.

The 28-year-old has one-year left on his deal with Barca and has been linked with a move away from the Camp Nou this summer.

“Eto’o has a stratospheric offer from City, which would convert him into the best paid player in the world,” Laporta told Catalan radio station iCat FM.

“It’s starting to become clear that he has this monster offer. He wants to stay but an offer like this is very difficult to refuse.

“If Eto’o accepts this stratospheric offer we will have to bring in someone.”
